External Library and deleting pictures
Usage💻Web❓QuestionHello! New to self hosting and to Immich (its awesome and am loving the user experience and the ease of managing the boat loads of pictures).
Here is my setup - i have Immich setup and configured with External Libraries as an App (v2.1) via TrueNAS. The External Library is a SMB share on TrueNAS. Its all working just fine and as expected.
As i was browsing through my pictures from the External Library, i wanted to clean up the collection, so i wished to delete some pictures and wanted to know if doing so via the Web UI would sync back to the External Library folder to delete that picture?
I did a quick online search and
1. ran into this Reddit post, but was not sure if it was the most current info (it mentions that it was not possible currently) - https://www.reddit.com/r/immich/comments/1az4qmb/any_way_to_make_immich_delete_photos_from/
2. Saw this discussion where it seems to say that you can setup the External Library with Read Write (RW) access and it should be possible - https://github.com/immich-app/immich/discussions/5449
Can someone help confirm which one it is? And if it is indeed #2 can you help me check how i configure the app to have the External Library to be RW enabled.
