How can I use my IP camera with Nextcloud?

🚧 Installation

Hi there, Complete Noob here. So, finally I created Ubuntu server and installed Nextcloud successfully. As a beginner, I was wondering, is there anyway I can use My Ip Camera’s storage with Nextcloud? is it possible though? I am using some Chinese brand cameras which has their own paid monthly planned cloud system. Thought it would be great if I can use Next cloud instead of paying them monthly.

Thanks in advance.

If they support webdav as storage backend, then you can directly use it. For other protocols you can probably “hack” something. If it is only some proprietary cloud storage, that’s more difficult. So it depends a lot on this camera.
