Click 【Cloud Account Management】, and you can see the added cloud account in the list. Click the corresponding cloud account to enter the details page
Click the 【Integration】 button on the cloud account details page, find Alibaba Cloud File Storage NAS under the Not Installed list, and click the 【Install】 button to pop up the installation interface for installation.

Manual Activation Script¶
