Quick way to "link" to location on a shared SMB server?
Right-click the file or folder in Finder > Services > Copy full path
Paste the path into the email (I used Apple Mail)
The recipient just has to choose the whole path in the email and right-click it > Reveal in Finder


You don't have to escape spaces in the path with backslashes! The share has to be mounted already.



If you don't find a service like "Copy Path" or "Copy full Path" you can simply create it yourself:


Launch Automator
Create a new service
Search for “Copy to Clipboard” and drag that into the rightside panel of the Service
Set ‘Service receives selected’ to “files or folders” and ‘in’ to “Finder” at the top of the service.
Save the service as "Copy Path"
Depending on your system you can copy the path either by right-clicking an item > Copy Path or Services > Copy Path.
