It would be super useful to be able to put a file into a nextcloud folder by adding an option to “Upload file using a pasted URL”.

Then we wouldn’t have to download first, then upload.

It would be cool if it will become a standard feature in Nextcloud (on using Managed Nextcloud without the option to install apps).
And there is no really security risk because “curl” is like download on local client and upload to Nextcloud in one step without the need of the slow client.

It is also a standard feature in Tiny File Manager

this looks interesting. i like the youtube-dl feature too. Is there a way to download a youtube vid, and also alternately download a YouTube vid with audio extraction? i like to listen to the audio from videos while driving sometimes.

is it possible to see the source code for this one? nvmnd – found it!

ocdownloader just gives me this message: “Unable to retrieve true YouTube audio URL”

Tho, if i download the exact same url in the cli it works.
