    Have you bind your audiobook directory to the containers /audiobook directory?

    What format are your audiobooks?

    Have you tried uploading one via the GUI?

    Perhaps it’s a permission issue (e.g. add the user that runs audiobookshelf to the shares group)

      This seems the correct advice. If the container is on the same host as the data, there’s no need to access the data via Samba. In fact, it’s likely the container doesn’t contain the samba client needed for such connectivity.

      Assuming TrueNAS allows the containers to see local data, a bind mount is the way to go.
