Globusconnectpersonal on windows/mac/linux has settings to give permissions for different directories but we still haven't seemed to find how to get gcp to let us set a location outside of the home directory.
There are certain use cases where users may wish to transfer their files outside of home.

Yeah, we had a related use case over a year ago with hubmap-clt. This is what we did:
Ahh, well, we may have figured it out though! I will go over gory details below and still verifying with Abhiroop if he can reproduce the fixes I made to make it work. But it worked for me when I tested it on Friday.
Essentially our problem was that we needed to download data with a headless server to a path not in the user's home directory (and no symbolic links don't work w/ globus).
For demonstration purposes, let's say the target directory is at /foo
Then when we run hubmap-clt transfer manifest.txt -d /foo it works.
It'd be great to get this use case documented with the hubmap-clt and adding an option to let absolute paths through without appending ~/.
Thanks,
Bruce
It would be great to have better support for this (or explicit directions in the documentation)
Yes, it seems its not as simple as adding new installation paths in the access tab. I would prefer if we could find a way to do it that didn't involve users needing to modify config files. In the mean time, our documentation as-is caused some confusion so its been amended until we have a less clunky solution implemented.
