Hello there @Francisco_Peixoto,

you started a topic in development category. This category is intended for active developers of the core or apps in the Nextcloud ecosystem.
From the description in your topic, it is not clear if you are seeking help and advice about a concrete problem you have or you want to actually develop the corresponding solution.

Please specify explicitly the required information to help you best. These are:

1. What you want to achieve
2. What you have done so far
3. What is failing
4. What you expect from the forum community

Without additional information the community members cannot help you in an efficient manner. Please keep in mind that the help here in the forum are mostly based on work of volunteers and thus it is just fair to reduce the burden on them.

Also note, that this forum (especially the development section) is not monitored on regular intervals and your request looks more like a feature request. That would fit best in the GitHub issue tracker. Better is always to provide feature requests in general.

If you accidentally posted in the category, just give a hint and a moderator can move the corresponding category.

Regards,

Regards, Francisco
