Comments.Text: Yes, you should try that. For example if you store your assets in _craft/web/media/images_, you'll need to set the **File system path** of your volume to `@webroot/media/images` and its base URL to `@web/media/images`.

  (Asked by: username_0 on 2020-09-16)
  
  I have a headless Craft CMS site and now the frontend development should start.
  
  I have absolutely no frontend or templates as I only worked on the backend.
  
  The asset url got created at `/images`. If for example the file `1.jpg` got uploaded it should be shown in `example.com/images/1.jpg` when I click on `view` in the file manager in Craft.
  
  Sadly I get the error `Template not found` when I only want to see the uploaded file or rather get access to the file.
  
  What can I do to get access to the assets from my asset link `/images`?
  
  Thanks in advance!
