I installed mainsail OS on my raspberry PI, made a file with my Wifi SSD and password
Used multiple IP scanning apps and youtube videos can't seem to find the IP on my network hence not able to access the dashboard

My guess is you miss-configured the file or typed the ssid or psk incorrectly.

should be called wpa_supplicant.conf

country=us
update_config=1
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant

network={
 scan_ssid=1
 ssid="MyNetworkSSID"
 psk="Pa55w0rd1234"
}

Simple use the rpi imager as revomanded and do the setup in there

See https://docs.mainsail.xyz/setup/mainsailos/pi-imager

Mainsail

Raspberry Pi Imager

Mainsail is a lightweight & responsive web interface for the Klipper 3D printer firmware. It communicates with Moonraker (Klipper-API) from Arksine.

If you want to do it by file see the WIFI-README.txt at /boot
