# Mount a drive

Videos on a cloud drive? Mount it into Fanmu first.

## What is supported

**WebDAV**.

OpenList (formerly AList) works through its WebDAV endpoint — there is no separate OpenList API.

SMB, Emby, and OneDrive are not supported yet.

## How

1. Open **Mounts** in the sidebar
2. Add a mount and fill in:

| Field | Meaning |
|-------|---------|
| Name | Anything, e.g. "My NAS" |
| URL | WebDAV root, like `https://nas.example.com/dav` |
| Username | Drive account (optional) |
| Password | Drive password (optional) |
| Root path | Only look under this folder (empty = whole root) |

3. Click **Test connection**, then save

## Is the password safe

The password is **encrypted on the server**. The browser never sees the plaintext. Streams also go through the server, so your browser does not talk to the drive with your password.

## If it fails

- Cannot connect: check that the URL is the WebDAV root, and that the account and HTTPS cert are fine
- Connects but empty: the root path may be too deep
- Do not need it anymore: disable or delete the mount
