Documentsdirectory with FileManager.local() vs. FileManager.iCloud(): Where is the content stored/Access via Files app or Picker?

[Just_A_User]

I regularly use FileManager.iCloud().documentsDirectory() to store/access all Scriptable relevant data in the same iCloud folder as my Scriptable scripts.
Now I tested some widgets that uses FileManager.local().documentsDirectory() to store its content.

I’m curious:
I can list the files&folders in both directories with listContents() and I get different outputs (as expected).
The difference is that Scriptable’s iCloud folder is visible on my device(s) in the Files app and in the Document Picker, but the local folder isn’t.
Can I access those files with the Files app/Document picker,is it intented that the local() folder is hidden or is it simply a bug?
Thanks for any insight.

No, you only get to local through the app.

See this discussion where that was mentioned before.

Is there a way to see Scriptable created file's content from Files app?

Hi, I created a file using Scriptable’s write function, I saved that file in the documentsDirectory() + “/foo.txt” path. In documentsDirectory() documentation it states that Documents stored in this directory can be accessed using the Files app. It also says something about enabling an option if my files are being stored locally, but as I have iCloud enabled they are not being stored locally, according to what I understood about the documentation at least, is there a way to see my file. Not…

Ahh, limited the search to the wrong forum.
Thank you very much!
