how to properly link the wallet with lbry account wallet

[RESDXChgfore9hing]

is there a systematic flow to sync it?

Check how the LBRY desktop app does it. Odysee also does same. It basically does this:

1. Log in to your account
   (These calls are made to API server, check network tab in dev tools for more details)
   -user/new
   -user/signin

2. Get wallet from the server if there is one
   -sync/get

3. Merge sync data to local wallet
   (This call happens on the LBRY sdk)
   -sync_apply https://lbry.tech/api/sdk#sync_apply

4. Send the merged wallet to sync server
   -sync/set

is there a way for me to point to a fixed local wallet path with the lbry sdk?

because ideally I want to have a copy of the LBRY wallet from LBRY desktop app in my other disk for backup/etc.

Not sure what you mean exactly, but maybe setting wallet dir is related https://lbry.tech/resources/daemon-settings

[RESDXChgfore9hing]

ahh yes.
I wanted to save and sync the wallet into some other path.

does something like below works?:
I open the lbry desktop
cmd>curl -d'{"method": "wallet_dir", "params": {"X:\somebackup\lbryum"}' http://localhost:5279/

No, check the link in above comment. Wallet_dir is a config option you can set in daemon_settings.yml.

If you just want to have copy of the wallet else where, can't you just copy/paste the wallet file? Or maybe use symlink.

[RESDXChgfore9hing]

hmmm sadly i mainly use lbry desktop in windows.so there is no symlink.
copy/paste is possible but i scare wrongly overwrite,but will try copy paste.
