Emby does not have access to the media folder on TrueNAS Scale

Hi, there! I am reletively new to Emby and TrueNAS. I have installed Emby docker app on my trueNAS server from the offical catalog. But when I tried to include a path into a Library, Emby doesnt seem to have access to the folder I chooesd.

I selected a Host Path in TrueNAS for the docker app and gave the user "apps" permission to that dataset.(it is the same with read-only on and off)

In Emby I created a Movie library. When adding folder to that library, I was able to navigate to the Mount Path, which is "data"(in the screenshot above). But when I click it, the path box turns empty(it should showed the path) and filling the path manually doesn't work either(showing "The path could not be found. Please ensure the path is valid and try again.")  image.thumb.png.24f6bac88d3bdcb3191a01a72bd728bf.png

It seems Emby doesn't have access permission to the Host Path, but as I said, permissions have been given to apps.

I have been trying to figure this out for hours. I will be grateful if someone could help!
