I am a newbie here. How can I enable “Add Account” in the web version for NC users? I need to be able to switch between NC users.
I can’t see the “+Add account” button in the web version, I am not sure - but no one needs that? It’s very important to have it, I have multiple accounts I would like to switch.
There’s already been a big discussion on the linked GitHub where people with probably much more knowledge on the subject than I have answered you, so I don’t think there’s much more to add.
Just that I think such a feature would only work for accounts on the same instance, hosted by the same entity, and let’s be honest, I’d say for that it would be more of a nice to have feature for admins who need to switch back and forth between the admin account and their normal account, rather than a necessity.
Google Workspace is different because it is all Google, so it is always the same entity, even if you use your “own” Google Workspace “instance” with your own domain name, and they provide both the identity provider/authentication service and the application.
Nextcloud, on the other hand, only provides local user management directly in an application that can be hosted by many different entities, so it cannot work exactly the same way across multiple instances, at least not without providing a full identity provider/SSO solution, which is probably outside the scope of the Nextcloud project.
So I’d suggest you look at SSO solutions that already exist, such as Authentik or Keycloak, and see how far you can get with them.
