• Make sure gsconnect sftp is mounted
• Right click on the file and select Run as programm

#!/bin/bash
# A script to open GSconnect sftp folder with correct path

# Define the path to the GVFS folder
gvfs_path="/run/user/1000/gvfs"

# Find the folder that matches the pattern "sftp:host=*,port=*"
folder=$(find "$gvfs_path" -type d -name "sftp:host=*,port=*" | head -n 1)

if [ -z "$folder" ]; then
  echo "No matching folder found."
  exit 1
fi

# Extract host and port from the folder name
regex="sftp:host=([^,]*),port=([0-9]*)"
if [[ $folder =~ $regex ]]; then
  host=${BASH_REMATCH[1]}
  port=${BASH_REMATCH[2]}
else
  echo "Failed to extract host and port from folder name."
  exit 1
fi

# Construct the sftp URL
sftp_url="sftp://$host:$port/storage/emulated/0"

# Open the sftp URL in Nautilus
nautilus "$sftp_url" &
