I have a question, once is mounted, why I can’t explore my directories in spaces, basically, I only can work in spaces root, any suggestion?

If users updating files in a local mount area its will automatically sync with space.

If your use case really requires mounting your Space like a local filesystem, s3fs-fuse is probably the tool you are looking for. On Ubuntu, you can install it with:

sudo apt install s3fs

Then add those credentials to ~/.passwd-s3fs, create the local directory, and mount your Space:

fstab Auto mount on startup s3fs#bucket /path/to/local/directory fuse allowother,netdev,nosuid,nodev,default_acl=public-read,url=https://ams3.digitaloceanspaces.com 0 0

digitalocean s3fs bucket /path/to/local/directory -o passwd_file=${HOME}/.passwd-s3fs -o url=https://ams3.digitaloceanspaces.com -o use_path_request_style
