Hi @nursoda,  
I am looking forward to restrict the nextcloud usage to the web interface. Do you know a solution for this as you have mentioned it?

I am aware of modifying the .htaccess to disable the authorization ([Disable Webdav completely?](https://help.nextcloud.com/t/disable-webdav-completely/27573/7)), but this feels a bit prone to errors, as I don’t know, if any app will make use of that authorization endpoint.
