Guest account creation

Starting with Guest App version 1.4.6 or higher it is possible for third parties to create Guest accounts. The Outlook add-in takes advantage of the feature provided by the Guest App. Make sure the Guest App runs as expected within your Nextcloud environment. 

  1. Ensure the Nextcloud instance is connected to your email server.

  2. Ensure the Guests may access the ‘file_sharing’ application.

  3. (Recommended) hide users from other guests setting enabled.

Password communication mode

With this setting it is possible to adjust the way the password is being send to the recipient. 

There are 3 options:

  1. Include in email body à The password will be inserted in the same email as the link.

  2. Include in separate email à The password will be inserted in another email than the link. The email will be sent from the same email server.

  3. Use external service (e.g. text message) à This option isn’t available yet but will make it possible in the future to send the password by text message or from a separate mail server.

If you choose for option 2 there is a possibility to adjust the HTML snippet for the separate email.

 

In the registry this is ‘SendMode’ (string) with value = ‘Separate’.
