I mainly use iCloud, and I was wondering if there was any way that I could mount my iCloud drive. On Windows (and MacOS, I think) your iCloud drive appears as a sort of special directory, like its own folder. Is there anything I could do to achieve something similar on Linux?

I wouldn't mind it if I couldn't mount my iCloud drive per se. I just want something that has a similar functionality to Insync (But for iCloud.) All I want to be able to do is automatically sync files from my Linux machine to my iCloud drive.
 


G'day gilded, Welcome to Linux.org

Is this any help?

Use iCloud Drive on iCloud.com​

You can access your iCloud Drive files in a web browser on a phone, tablet or computer.

For more information on how to use iCloud Drive on iCloud.com, see any of the following:



Also, these add-ons from Firefox should hopefully give you some joy




The one below has no reviews and only a few users.....still worth a look

 
I've never used it but there's an iDrive command line utility that will allow you to mount your iDrive storage like you're mounting a disk. It is a terminal-based tool and no GUI is available as of the last time I looked.
 
not sure about icloud but I think it is the same as the connection to google drive or M$ one drive. I use fedora so I go into settings under a online accounts. I put the user and sign in information in and poof I have the drive in my file manager. I would assume it is similar in other distros
 
Sign on to your icloud mail ? It might ask you for all kind of security questions.
