+## How do I access my Documents/Downloads/Desktop folders in code-server on OSX?
+
+Newer versions of macOS require permission through a non-UNIX mechanism for access to the Desktop, Documents, Pictures, Downloads, and other folders.
+
+You may have to give Node "full disk access" since it doesn't implement any of the macOS permission request stuff natively.
+
+1. Find where Node is installed on your machine
+
+   ```console
+   ➜ ~ which node
+   /usr/local/bin/node
+   ```
+
+1. Grant Node Full Disk Access:
+
+Open System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy (horizontal) tab > Full Disk Access (vertical) tab > Click the 🔒 to unlock > Click + and select the Node binary you located.

+See [#2794](https://github.com/cdr/code-server/issues/2794) for context on this.
