Possible to automate Storage Template Migration Job
Based on this ticket, I have to constantly manually run the Storage Template Migration Job to get files to get loaded into albums correctly. Is there a way to automate this? Can I run a script that runs the job at a scheduled time? Can I run a script that will run it after an asset is uploaded?
This seems like a pretty big oversight to storage templates if this job has to be run manually every time an asset is uploaded.

[Issue] Storage Template enabled but I constantly need to run the Storage Template Migration Job to get the folder structure correct (immich-app/immich#21662)
Successfully submitted, a tag has been added to inform contributors. :white_check_mark:you can use the API to script this
is it something that can be done natively within immich?
no
if I wanted to create an API key for this, what permission would it need?
looking here, it seems like this script on a cron schedule would do what I want?

obviously updating localhost and port to match my immich instance, and I could just run this on the same machine that's running my docker image? is this script correct though?
How is the storage template engine supposed to work? - Immich
Hello everyone! Apologies if this has been discussed elsewhere—I couldn’t find a definitive answer on GitHub, in the issues, or on Discord. I’ve read the storage-template docs (https://immich.app/docs/administration/storage-template) and everything else I could find online, but I’m still puzzled by how this feature works in practice. I...
@Zeus just wanted to follow up on this
I'm not really planning to walk you through this, all the info is in the API docs if you want to give it a shot
I don't know what perms would be needed. presumably the job permissions
that's fine, just needed to know which api permission. jobs was correct and my script worked.
