Webhook and Nextcloud integration

n8n lets you integrate Webhook with Nextcloud to build powerful workflows. Design automation that extracts, transforms and loads data between your apps and services. You can choose from thousands of ready-made apps or use our universal HTTP connector to sync apps not yet in our library.

Integrate Webhook and Nextcloud

Build your own Webhook and Nextcloud integration

Create custom Webhook and Nextcloud workflows by choosing triggers and actions. Nodes come with global operations and settings, as well as app-specific parameters that can be configured. You can also use the HTTP Request node to query data from any app or service with a REST API.

Move a nextcloud folder file by file

Description:

This template facilitates the transfer of a folder, along with all its files and subfolders, within a Nextcloud instance. The Nextcloud user must have access to both the source and destination folders. While Nextcloud allows folder movement, complications may arise when dealing with external storage that has rate limits. This workflow ensures the individual transfer of each file to avoid exceeding rate limits, particularly useful for setups involving external storage with rate limitations.

How it works:

  • Identify all files and subfolders within the specified source folder.
  • Recursive search within subfolders for additional files.
  • Replicate the folder structure in the target folder.
  • Individually move each identified file to the corresponding location in the target folder.

Set up steps:

  • Set Nextcloud credentials for all Nextcloud nodes involved in the process.
    -Edit the trigger settings. Detailed instructions can be found within the respective trigger configuration.
  • Initiate the workflow to commence the folder transfer process.

Webhook and Nextcloud integration details

integrationWebhook node
Webhook

Webhooks are automatic notifications that apps send when something occurs. They are sent to a certain URL, which is effectively the app's phone number or address, and contain a message or payload. Polling is nearly never quicker than webhooks, and it takes less effort from you.
