Apple - Quick way to "link" to location on a shared SMB server?
- Right-click the file or folder in Finder > Services > Copy full path
- Paste the path into the email (I used Apple Mail)
- The recipient just has to choose the whole path in the email and right-click it > Reveal in Finder
You don't have to escape spaces in the path with backslashes! The share has to be mounted already.
If you don't find a service like "Copy Path" or "Copy full Path" you can simply create it yourself:
- Launch Automator
- Create a new service
- Search for “Copy to Clipboard” and drag that into the rightside panel of the Service
- Set ‘Service receives selected’ to “files or folders” and ‘in’ to “Finder” at the top of the service.
- Save the service as "Copy Path"
- Depending on your system you can copy the path either by right-clicking an item > Copy Path or Services > Copy Path.
