Iām thinking to create a nextcloud app to create a new scanned file (scanned server-side) appearing in the list that appears when clicking + to create new file/folder/ā¦ Will this automatically also appear in the Android nextcloud app? If not how to make it appear?
So, you mean, you add a new action to the files app that allows to create a new new file type (for scanned files). That is you add some entry into this list (sorry it is in German but I guess you understand it nevertheless):
Creating such a file will trigger the scanning. Now your question is if this will automatically propagate to the android app and allows to scan remotely.
Am I correct?
I would assume this will not propagate. The changes in the web frontend are applies using javascript. I highly doubt the android app will interpret the JS code as well. Instead, the Android UI might probably be hard-coded.
Maybe @tobiasKaminsky can give some insight or redirect the question accordingly

Hi,
Chris is correct, this will not yet work.
However we plan to to such a client integration, but it is not yet ready to publish, e.g. documentation is lacking for now.
I think it will be ready by release of NC Hub Winter 2026.
