Mc mini and Mac book air are synced , from Mac bok air you can drag and drop files to some other locations Work with folders and files in iCloud Drive - Apple Support
The files will be removed from iCloud.com but remain in Mac , you'r query is just opposite of it send feedback Feedback - iCloud - Apple , to be clear don't add .nosync with file extensions
Thanks for your reply. I've got access to the files, my issue is that the desktop on my mini Mac is now what I see on my MacBook. I'd like to be able to access files on the iCloud without having the files on the MacBook itself. I hope I'm being clear.
To be clear. I'm reffering to files I already have on a Mac mini.
