      Hello!
      I'm not sure that this is the right place for this issue, but hoping someone can point me in the right direction (not sure whether Nextcloud support or Backblaze).
      I added an external storage to my Nextcloud instance which is linked to my Backblaze account/bucket. When I upload a file through Nextcloud into my External Storage folder, my Backblaze 'Browse Files' view shows the same file uploaded twice, meaning double the storage! I am able to view/access/download the file properly through both NC and BB, but I don't want to have to store the file twice?? Has anyone come across something like this in the past?
      See screenshots:

        @thetomester13 I think the nextcloud forum is the correct places for this. I highly doubt backblaze is creating duplicate files.

          Maybe you can try in these posts - https://help.nextcloud.com/t/is-backblazes-s3-api-ready-for-nextcloud/81810

          Also, I saw this article from Backblaze - https://help.backblaze.com/hc/en-us/articles/360047277954-How-do-I-use-NextCloud-with-B2-Cloud-Storage. At the bottom it says "you have any trouble using NextCloud with B2, please let us know by emailing us at b2feedback@backblaze.com." Worth a shot?

            Thanks for the response, @girish. I'm going to email B2 and see what they say, I'll report back with results!
