workflow: iOS upload → external processing → external library
UsageI'm looking to set up a workflow where I:
1. Upload photos from iOS using the Immich mobile app
2. Run my own custom sorting/EXIF management scripts on those uploaded files
3. After culling, have only the processed/curated photos appear in Immich (ideally via an external library)
My current understanding is I'd need to:
Upload via iOS app to Immich's normal upload location
Access those files directly in UPLOAD_LOCATION to run my scripts
Move the keeper photos to a separate directory configured as an external library (will Immich be okay me moving files out of UPLOAD_LOCATION?)
Is there a cleaner way to handle this workflow? Specifically, is there a way to upload from iOS to a location that can be easily processed externally before being scanned into Immich's main library?
Thank you
