    Hi
    I am hoping someone here can help me as google has failed me completely.
    I have a MBP running 10.13.4 and Parallels 13, I am running the full iCloud files and desktop sharing so I have access to my files on all my Macs.
    I have just installed a new VM of 10.13.4 and want it to share my MBP iCloud, rather than download 5Gb's of pointless data but I simply cannot make it work.
    The few pointers I have found are all followed, in Parallels Settings Sharing I have selected Share Cloud folders with macOS.
    On the VM I have tried two things, manually configuring and selecting my Documents folder in iCloud, that works but in the VM is empty!
    In Parallels Shared Folders I can see iCloud but when I click on it, it is only showing about 6 folders, which does not include my Documents folder.
    I cannot figure out a way to make all my Documents visible in the macOS client VM.
    PLEASE tell me I am doing something stupid and what it is?

    Robin
