Server: Adding OneDrive external storage support

[mightyBroccoli]

Could it be possible to implement the ability to connect a users OneDrive with thier cloud?
Some of my users have a real big storage availability and would like to use them with thier nextcloud client.
Would that be possible?

APIs are there - If somebody wants to step in 🙈 https://dev.onedrive.com

[mightyBroccoli]

Are there any news on this? I would love this feature I hope somebody is able to implement that.

Fyi, WebDAV integration is not working, even if theoretically supported by OneDrive (probably something related to a non-complete WebDAV support from OD, nextCloud throws a "Method not supported" error).

cc @icewind1991 @rullzer I guess this should be done as app, right?

[rullzer]

Yes app!

why its closed? :0

[craige1]

Please dont close

[MariusBluem]

We closed this issue since this is something somebody can implement as an app :) This is nothing we want and will have in the server core...

[craige1]

Oh.
How much work do you think this would actually be?
Could an amateur coder give it a shot, or should it be left to the skilled?

@craige1 You could use this app as a starting point to implement support for different external storage services:

Whilst I can understand the rationale for not having OneDrive support in the server core, and the argument for it to be an app, I am surprised that support for OneDrive is not seen as being a strategic priority for NextCloud in terms of enabling widespread adoption.

This is absurd. They could easily add OneDrive support via, minimally, WebDAV. I know of several programs and web apps off the top of my head that do this. Just use https://d.docs.live.net/https://d.docs.live.net/1234567890ABCDEF and then your Microsoft account username and an app password. This isn't rocket science and this is highly requested.

Hi everyone,

if you are interested I am working on an app to integrate onedrive in nextcloud.
Now beta-unstable with some performance issues.
