Access to icloud drive files

Question

Access to icloud drive files

Hello everyone. I'm doing a django web application on my mac that display images and pdf files stored on my icloud drive. I tried direct access and it's impossible. So I ran an apache http server to access via url. If I copy my images in the www directory of apache server I see them but if I create a link to icloud drive images I can't access them.

I can't store images and pdfs in local disk and if I can't access to icloud drive files I have to migrate to another storage. I need only to read this files but it seems impossible.

Do anyone know how to solve this problem?

Thank for your answers

Marco

I don't really know anything about django, and I don't do python, but my guess is that Apple's sense of security makes iCloud Drive access very difficult for routines that look like they might be nefarious or criminal.

I think that if you want help with this it's a better bet to talk to the django or python communities.
