How do I reveal something from Data Parking in Finder, and why isn't it offered for cloud items?

\n

Short answer: Right-click an item in either Data Parking pane and choose Reveal in Finder. It's only offered for items on your Mac or external drive; cloud items can be browsed through the Storage Studio location in Finder's sidebar.

\n

Right-click any item in either pane of Data Parking and choose Reveal in Finder. Finder opens with the item selected.

\n

The option appears only for items on your Mac or your external drive. Items inside a cloud account don't have it, because Finder can't open a cloud path directly from there. To browse a cloud account in Finder, use the Storage Studio location in Finder's sidebar, where each connected account appears as a folder.
