This worked pretty well for me, although constructing the cli command took a little elbow grease. This video proved to be very helpful.

Here’s the commands I ended up using:

Testing Upload Process

Before performing the actual upload, test the process with this command:

immich-go.exe -server http://[server.ip:port} -key [put your apikey here w/o brackets} upload -dry-run -google-photos takout-*.zip

Actual Upload

Once testing is successful, perform the full upload:

immich-go.exe -server http://[server.ip:port} -key [put your apikey here w/o brackets} upload -google-photos takout-*.zip

Remove Duplicates

If you’ve previously uploaded photos before syncing your phone, remove duplicates with:

immich-go.exe -server http://[server.ip:port} -key [apikey} duplicate -yes

Lower overhead

If you want an app that stores nothing on the cloud, check it out here on Android and here on IOS. My SO loves it!

…Which he is.
