But when i ssh console into the machine, i can’t find the fly volume directory mounted anywhere.

please help where can i find it.

[mounts]
  source="myapp_data"
  destination="/data"

this is my fly.toml

and i want to find the /data directory. I also want to mv some data from a directory using SCP.
How can i do this? And how do i mount the fly volume locally using sshfs? thank you.

Are you using fly ssh console or fly console? The sooner ssh into an existing machine (if there’s any started) and the later creates a temporary machine which could not have anything in the volume.

Try fly ssh console -s with your machine started then run ls /data to check if there’s anything.

To move files you can use fly ssh sftp:

[I] ➜ fly ssh
Use SSH to login to or run commands on VMs

Usage:
  flyctl ssh [command]

Available Commands:
  console     Connect to a running instance of the current app.
  issue       Issue a new SSH credential
  log         Log of all issued SSH certs
  sftp        Get or put files from a remote VM.

im not used to sshfs but this article describes how to do scp, you can use as base for that:
