Synology WebDAV for Joplin

#software/NAS #software/productivity So just to recap, and anyone can correct me if I’m wrong; to get WebDAV synchronisation working on a synology NAS: 1-Create a Joplin shared folder at the highest level in File Station. 2-Download WebDAV server from the Package Center. 3-Enable HTTP/HTTPS. 4-Under External Access in Control Panel, select Add under DDNS to create a registered hostname. 5-Under Router Configuration, select Create to add port forwarding rules for the ports used in the WebDAV server application (the default 5005,5006 were used in this case). 6-Go to your Router and open the same ports. In my case, I have a Lynksis router and it was under Security->Apps and Gaming->Port Range Forwarding. 7-Go back to Router Configuration under External Access and test the connection. Should result in “ok” in the Connection Test Result column. 8-I would suggest manually backing up your notes to the Joplin folder and to another folder on your desktop or a drive in case synchronisation tries to delete your notes. 9-Under the Synchronisation section of Joplin: -use http://[local IP address]:5005/joplin/ for the desktop version -use https://*.synology.me:5006/joplin/ for the mobile version. In this case, this address needs to be the same one you created in STEP 4. 10-Enter the login credentials under WebDAV username/password for your Synology NAS. 11-Select “Check synchronisation configuration”. Should result in “Success! Synchronisation configuration appears to be correct.” 12-Now you can select Synchonise in the main tab and you’re done!
