12. From the Add Volume menu, select Bind Mount Host Path again, and repeat the steps to map a folder where you files will be downloaded or uploaded from. For Host we’ll use masv/data and for Container, we’ll enter /data.
13. Select 適用 to close 詳細設定, 次のページで、その後 Finish. In a few moments your new MASV Agent container displays in the Containers のリストを作成します。
Now we’ll open the MASV Web App to create an Integration with the QNAP device.
Create a Secure Connection to your QNAP NAS in the MASV Web App
In the MASV Web App, we’ll set up a secure connection by registering an ID and secret key with the QNAP device.
When setting up the QNAP integration, we need to choose a direction (ストレージに保存 と Send from storage). We’ll set up a ストレージに保存 integration, but you can easily repeat the process to set up a Send from storage integration as well.

7. Fill in the Send Upload Request Via Email fields, adding the email recipients and the message that you want to send.
8. Select the リクエストを送信 ボタンをクリックしてウィンドウを閉じる。
What Happens Next?
1. The email recipients listed in your upload request receive an email with a link to your Portal.
2. Using their web browser, the email recipient can drag and drop the files onto the Portal page and send the files as a package.
4. As the Portal owner, in addition to a package notification email, you’ll receive an email notification when the files have been delivered to your Synology storage.
💡 Tip: As an alternative to monitoring received files via email, you can review all sent or received packages in the MASVウェブアプリ. Select 転送履歴 in the sidebar, and on the 転送履歴 ページで Received tab to view a list of all received packages.
You can scroll left-right to view all info, and in the 行動 column, select the icon and choose Package Details for more info, including a delivery log.
💡 Tip: Packages that are active in your 転送履歴 can easily be sent to any of your Integrations, including QNAP. Simply select a package from the Sent と Received タブで 行動 column, select the icon and choose Send Package to Cloud. Select the Integration you want from the list, and select Confirm.
Files are saved to your default location (/data/MASV) or to the Target Directory configured in the integration.
確認したい? On your QNAP device, open File Station, and navigate to your mapped folder. If you didn’t set an optional Target Directory, your files are saved to the following default location: Portal Downloads > [Portal name] > [Package name].
おめでとう! You’ve installed the MASV Agent, set up an Integration in the MASVウェブアプリ, and delivered files to your QNAP storage by using a MASV Portal. You can create as many Integrations and MASV Portals as you need to help organize your file transfers, teams, and projects.
