Can't find people from other AD groups when share folder and search by first name only

[Frxhb]

Hello there! It’s me again

I am struggling with the following case:

We in our comapny are using an ActiveDirectory.
So I connected my AD with my Nextcloud and filtered groups (and user of those groups) to be displayed under “users” in Nextcloud.
There are 3 AD Groups who are allowed to login (via AD Credentials) and in those 3 groups are about 15 people. Those people are able and allowed to login.
Until here everything works fine.

Here are some screenshots:

Server config:

User Settings for AD/LDAP:

Group Settings for AD/LDAP:

Login Settings (this works fine):

But now my problem:

For example I am in group x (rt) and I try to share a folder with someone from group y (administration). When doing this, I cannot find the person by just his/her first name. If I search for his/her first- and last name I can find him/her.

When I am in the same group with the person I am trying to share something with, I can easily write some letters of the first name in the search field and I can find the person I want to share something with.

Users / Groups

Can I fix this somehow? Did I do something wrong in my configuration?
I searched for hours and did not find a solution.

My NC Configuration
Debian 10 Buster
Apache: Server version: Apache/2.4.38 (Debian)
Server version: 10.3.31-MariaDB-0+deb10u1 Debian 10
PHP 8.0.17
NC Version: 23.0.2.1

Thanks in advance

Have you checked the settings in:

Settings → Administration → Sharing

There are some parameters e.g.
Allow username autocompletion in share dialog

yep, thats what I did. Sorry for not mentioning it. Here a screenshot:

The same if I search for another group to share a folder with.

When I type the exact group name, I can find it
If I just search for a part of the group name, it wont appear.

Ok, it seems like this “bug” was already discovered:

Sharing with groups (w/o membership)

Nextcloud version: 22.2.3 Operating system and version: Debian 11 Apache or nginx version: nginx 1.18 PHP version: PHP 8.0 The issue you are facing: When trying to share files with other groups, only groups the current user is part of are shown in the autocomplete bar. It doesn’t matter if the group you’re trying to find is an LDAP or a locally created group - you can’t find it in the share dialog when you’re not part of it and it doesn’t seem possible to fix this behaviour. Steps to repl…
