Shared Access to Suite Volume on Linux

Suite on Linux limits volume access by default. To allow all users (incl. root) read/write access, enable FUSE_ALLOW_OTHER.

Updated today

By default, Suite’s FUSE integration on Linux restricts specific access permissions for security reasons. If you need other users (including root) to have read/write access to the Suite volume, enabling FUSE_ALLOW_OTHER will achieve this.

Update /etc/fuse.conf

  1. Open /etc/fuse.conf in your text editor:

    sudo nano /etc/fuse.conf

  2. Locate the line containing #user_allow_other and remove the leading #:

    user_allow_other

  3. Save the file and exit the editor.


Configure Suite

  1. Navigate to the Suite configuration directory:

    cd /home/<user-name>/.SuiteStudios/App/

  2. Create or edit the .config.json file:

    .config.json

  3. Add the following property:

    {

    "FUSE_ALLOW_OTHER": "true"

    }

  4. Save your changes and restart Suite.
