How to visible ‘/pub/media/import’ folder in ‘Insert Images’ section in admin panel of Magento 2?

Magento 2 is not having this by default setting to see import folder of pub/media in ‘Insert Images’ section under CMS Page or Blocks.

If you want to show import folder in CMS Page or Blocks then follow below steps.

Step 1 : Create file : app/code/Magemonkey/ImportFolder/registration.php

<?php
\Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::register(
    \Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::MODULE,
    'Magemonkey_ImportFolder',
    __DIR__
);

<?php

\Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::register(

\Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::MODULE,

'Magemonkey_ImportFolder',

__DIR__

);

Step 2 : Create file : app/code/Magemonkey/ImportFolder/etc/module.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Module/etc/module.xsd">
    <module name="Magemonkey_ImportFolder" setup_version="1.0.0">    	
    </module>
</config>

<?xml version="1.0"?>

</module>

</config>

Step 3 : Create file : app/code/Magemonkey/ImportFolder/etc/di.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd">
	<type name="Magento\Cms\Model\Wysiwyg\Images\Storage">
	    <arguments>
	        <argument name="dirs" xsi:type="array">
	            <item name="include" xsi:type="array">
	                <item name="import" xsi:type="array">
	                    <item name="regexp" xsi:type="boolean">true</item>
	                    <item name="name" xsi:type="string">pub[/\\]+media[/\\]+import[/\\]*$</item>
	                </item>
	            </item>
	        </argument>
	    </arguments>
	</type>
</config>

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<item name="name" xsi:type="string">pub[/\\]+media[/\\]+import[/\\]*$</item>

</item>

</argument>

</arguments>

</type>

</config>
