Never mind. I finally figured it out.... My iCloud drive no longer appears in my Finder Sidebar. How do I get it back?

My iCloud drive no longer appears in my Finder Sidebar. How do I get it back? I've tried to log off so I can log back on, but the only way to do that seems to involve an incredibly long back up step before the machine will do so.


Never mind. I finally figured it out....

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

After signing out Apple ID and password from system preferences , then again sign in with same Apple ID and password the steps will vary for 2FA and secondary authentications accounts , the iCloud drive box has to be checked in between steps to configure , if you have missed the step the iCloud Drive will not be configured , however in normal working conditions if you right click on iCloud Drive icon and remove from side bar , it disappear but can be again visible in finder , open finder preferences > in side bar section check the box of iCloud Drive .
