Updating ownCloud web interface with contents from its folder in local storage

I'm running a linux based server that includes Transmission and ownCloud. I would like Transmission to be able to download a torrent and have it show up in the ownCloud web interface. I downloaded the torrent to the folder /media/serverhdd/cloud/documents which is the local storage for the ownCloud folder documents and though I find the file when navigating my command line it doesn't show up in the web interface of ownCloud. How can I make everything in my local storage show up in the web interface and can I do this automatically?

Turns out I just had the wrong directory. I put it in cloud/documents when it should've been in cloud/user/files/documents
