This release brings significant enhancements in performance and stability. It is also designed to provide an optimized experience for both end users and administrators. Please find the most important changes described here or refer to the changelog for a complete list of changes:

Federated cloud sharing allows users to access and collaborate on files stored on connected external servers, as if they were stored on the user’s instance. This creates a fluid and efficient workflow, eliminating the need for multiple file versions or complex file transfer processes. With federated cloud sharing data can reside on its original server, ensuring compliance with regional data sovereignty laws and organizational data policies.

To enable file sharing with a user on a different, connected server, an initial invitation needs to be sent. Once this is completed, files can be shared with that user as usual by entering their username, just like with internal users. The only difference is that users from connected instances will be marked as Federated Users for easy identification and management.

Technical Note:
Federated cloud sharing in Infinite Scale is based on the Open Cloud Mesh protocol version 1.1 (OCM 1.1) Learn more about OCM 1.1

Kudos to all members of the CS3 community who contributed to this project. A special thanks is owed to CERN for their contribution of the Science Mesh App. Thank You!

The password policy for sharing links allows administrators to set specific requirements for password strength. This feature ensures that your sharing practices align seamlessly with existing security policies.

The customizable settings for the password are minimum number of:

Banned Passwords List
To further bolster security, this update includes the ability to define a banned password list. This feature prevents users from using overly common or simplistic passwords, like Password123!, thereby reducing the risk of unauthorized access.

Integrated Password Generator
Accompanying this new password policy is a built-in password generator. It automatically creates passwords that comply with your defined requirements, simplifying the process for users while maintaining a high standard of security.

With this new capability we’ve introduced a new configuration option that allows administrators to set the default permissions for sharing links. This feature is tailored to meet the varying security needs of different organizations.

As an administrator, you now have the flexibility to define what the standard permissions for a link should be. This means you can choose whether to create a sharing link that is accessible to external parties with just a click, or opt for a more secure link that requires user authentication for access.

The default link permissions are communicated through capabilities. The default setting for this config option is set to default_link_permissions:1, meaning that by default, anyone can access the link with viewer permissions. This enhancement is geared towards providing administrators with greater control over their organizations' data sharing and security protocols.

Easily narrow down your search by file type. Whether you’re looking for documents, images, spreadsheets, or any other file types, the type filter chip allows you to quickly filter results to match your specific needs. The type filter groups the following MIME types. (The usual file extension is indicated in parentheses after the MIME type for ease of reference. However, it is the MIME type of a file that is decisive, not the file extension.)

Find the most relevant files in no time. This filter enables users to search for files based on the time they were last modified. Whether you’re looking for the latest versions or need to access files from a specific time period, this filter streamlines your search process.

We made significant improvements to the Shared with me section to make your file-sharing experience more efficient and user-friendly.

Previously divided into three parts, the Shared with me section has now been consolidated into a single, simplified section. This change provides a more streamlined view of all shared files, making it easier to navigate and manage your shared content.

In an effort to simplify your workflow, we have implemented an auto-accept feature for shares which is enabled by default. This means that any files shared with you will automatically appear in your Shared with me section without the need for manual acceptance, saving you time and effort.

If you remember only the name of the person who shared a file with you, our new filter option comes to the rescue. You can now filter the shares by the name of people, making it easier to find files shared by specific individuals.

We understand that sometimes you may receive shares that are not relevant or wanted. To address this, we have introduced a feature that allows you to hide such shares. By hiding a share, you can maintain a clear view of the shares that are important to you, ensuring your Shared with me section remains organized and clutter-free.

Access to Hidden Shares:
If you change your mind and wish to view a hidden share, you can easily do so. A dedicated area for hidden shares has been added, allowing you to revisit and manage any shares you have previously hidden.

To help you quickly find specific shares, we have improved the search functionality within the Shared with me section. This enhanced search filter enables you to efficiently locate files based on various criteria.

Gain control over which shared files are available for sync on your mobile and desktop devices. This feature is especially useful for managing large files. You can now choose to exclude certain files from syncing right from the start.

This new feature is designed to improve navigation and access within the platform, making your experience more efficient and integrated. Creating shortcuts is a new option in the 'New' menu, where you can also create new files.

Link to External: Webpage:
You can now create shortcuts that link directly to external websites. This feature allows for quick access to frequently used online resources, right from within ownCloud Infinite Scale.

Internal Linking to a File, a Folder or a Space
The shortcut feature also allows you to create links to internal files, folders, or spaces. This improves organization and accessibility of important documents and areas within ownCloud, which is especially useful in collaborative scenarios.

You can now add tags to files directly from the file’s details panel in the right sidebar. This update eliminates the need to navigate away from the details panel, streamlining the process of organizing and categorizing your documents. With tagging now integrated into the details panel, the process becomes more intuitive and user-friendly.

This action is designed to enhance the flexibility and efficiency of space management for our users. You now have the option to create a copy of an existing space. This duplication includes all files and folder structures within the space. The duplicated space will be free of any existing members, shares, sharing links or tags. This precaution is taken to prevent accidental data leakage and to ensure that the space manager can start from scratch, setting up a new space for team collaboration as needed. This feature saves time and effort in setting up new spaces that require content and structure similar to existing ones, but with different sharing.

Advanced users now have the ability to view the WebDav path and URL for each file, folder or space. This is particularly beneficial for users who prefer to interact via alternative methods, such as command-line interfaces or other third-party tools that support WebDav. It offers a direct and powerful way to interact with resources, especially for scripting, automation, or programmatic access.

This new feature brings the ability to display events in real-time, a shift from the traditional time series (polling mechanism). This advancement is made possible through the implementation of Server-Sent Events (SSE). By leveraging SSE, Infinite Scale now provides an instantaneous update mechanism. This means that events like notifications and file locking status changes are communicated to users in real-time.

Real-Time Notifications:
You will receive notifications instantly ensuring that you don’t have to wait for important information.

Immediate File Locking Visibility:
The status of file locking and unlocking is now displayed in real-time. This feature is crucial for collaborative environments, as it allows team members to see when a file is being used or becomes available, preventing conflicts and enhancing collaboration efficiency.

To streamline and enhance the development process, we have standardized the search syntax across server-client search requests using the Keyword Query Language (KQL). By adopting KQL, a well-known and widely used standard, we significantly simplify the development process for client applications. Developers can now rely on a familiar syntax, reducing complexity and accelerating development.

To enhance the robustness of Infinite Scale we integrated NATS.js as our primary registry mechanism. This update is particularly beneficial for large-scale deployments. With NATS.js, Infinite Scale is better equipped to handle large-scale deployments efficiently. NATS.js facilitates smoother and more stable operations even as the number of services and nodes increases. The goal is to provide a resilient and fault-tolerant framework, ensuring continuous and uninterrupted service even in demanding scenarios.

The Web UI now provides an Embed Mode for easier integration into other applications. The embed mode allows external applications to integrate the Web UI directly. This means that users can now access and interact with Infinite Scale within the context of other applications.

Example: Imagine you’re using a chat application and want to send a sharing link. With the embed mode, you can open the Web UI in a file picker-like interface, select files from Infinite Scale, and share them without ever having to leave the chat tab.

Embed mode streamlines workflows and eliminates the need to switch between different applications to manage files.

The New menu items have been reorganized with the most frequently used items placed at the top. This rearrangement is based on user feedback, ensuring that the most important file types are readily accessible. In our commitment to open source and universal accessibility, we’ve revised the wording for document labels to be more vendor-neutral. This change reflects our dedication to providing a user-friendly interface that caters to a universal user base.

We have relocated the button to open the sidebar, positioning it now in the global top bar. This move allows users to access the right sidebar not just in the Files app, but also in a variety of other applications. This change provides a way for integrating features like file details and sharing options into other applications, beside the Files app.

In the latest update, we’ve implemented significant improvements in the efficiency of folder tree creation during file uploads. By optimizing the process to run asynchronously and reducing the number of PROPFIND requests on nested folders, we’ve managed to substantially speed up this operation. In a test scenario with a folder containing 155 subfolders, the time to create these folders has been reduced from 20-30 seconds to just 5-7 seconds. While this duration may still be noticeable, it represents a considerable improvement, especially considering the limitations of client-side operations.

Additionally, we’ve massively enhanced the upload preparation time. Rather than setting file data individually for each file, we now collect all necessary data first and then apply it in a single batch using Uppy’s setState method. This approach streamlines the upload process, making it much quicker and more efficient for users.

When thumbnail creation is requested by the WebUI, the format can now be changed as part of the creation process. Previously images were always scaled to fit the given frame. In the process it could happen that images were cropped to fit, making them often hard to identify. By defining a processor via the API, images can now be scaled to best fit a given frame.

Experimental support for AD FS has been added. AD FS /adfs/.well-known/openid-configuration has an optional access_token_issuer which, in violation of the OpenID Connect spec, takes precedence over issuer.

To enable custom Infinite Scale extensions, custom routes have been added to the Infinite Scale proxy service. More details can be found in the Developer Documentation.

The ability to use environment variables in yaml config files has been added to make configuring Infinite Scale services easier. The value in the yaml file will be replaced by the actual value of the environment variable at runtime. This makes it possible to use the same config file for different environments without the need to change the config file itself, useful like when using docker compose with .env files to run Infinite Scale services.

The event bus used in many services is now configurable with a set of environment variables starting with OCIS_EVENTS_xxx. This is important for scaling when deploying your instance with an orchestration tool like Docker or Kubernetes. External stores used in caching can be reused for the event bus, easing the setup. See the Environment Variables with Special Scope documentation for a list of services affected. Each service listed has a detailed description.

The following services have been added:

This release primarily focuses on performance and stability improvements along with usability enhancements for a more streamlined user experience.

Please find the full list of changes here:

With the "Paste to upload" feature, you can instantly upload a single file by simply pasting it from your clipboard via CTRL+V / CMD+V in the Web UI. This eliminates the need for traditional file selection and upload methods, providing you an intuitive and swift upload process. Note: For security reasons "Paste to upload" works only for a single file, not for multiple files or a folder. #9140

Instead of just showing you the files that contain your search terms, it also highlights exactly where those terms are within each document. This will expedite your search for relevant content, saving you from the hassle of manually scanning through lengthy documents. Users can now activate the fulltext search by selecting the Search only in content filter chip located on the search results page. This takes away the need for inputting search syntax. #9294

The location filter feature allows you to refine search by specifying the file location. Now, instead of searching throughout your entire storage system, you can specify to search only within your current folder. This allows for a faster, more accurate search result, saving you precious time and effort. #9304

With the tag filter on the search results page, you can now refine your search results by specific tags. If you’ve assigned tags to your files and folders for better organization, you can utilize these tags as filters in your searches. This means you can narrow down your search results to only show items that carry a specific tag.

For example, if you’re looking for a particular project file and you remember tagging it as "Project X", you can input "Project X" in the tag filter, and the search results will only display files and folders with that tag. This new feature is particularly useful when dealing with a large number of files, making your search more efficient and manageable. #9044, #9096

We are excited to announce our new extension: Cloud Importer, designed to import files from other services. With this functionality, you can now seamlessly import files and folders from other services like OneDrive, Google Drive, ownCloud 10 or Nextcloud directly into Infinite Scale.

Effortlessly transfer your work documents, shared files, or entire project folders from these popular cloud storage platforms to your account. Whether you’re moving a single document or a large batch of files, the Cloud Importer ensures a smooth, fast, and reliable transfer. Note that the Cloud Importer only imports files, not shares or tags. Think of it as uploading a file, but from a cloud service instead of from your local drive.

The Cloud Importer is disabled by default. To enable this extension, please refer to the WOPI Docker Compose Deployment Example. #6702

This feature is experimental, i.e., it’s in a preview state, may break, and individual production usage must be agreed with ownCloud Support.

The simplified sharing links make sharing files with both internal and external parties easier than ever, while maintaining the highest levels of security and access control.

With simplified sharing links, you can generate a single, user-friendly link for any file or folder you want to share. This one link is all you need, whether you’re sharing with team members within your organization or with external partners and clients.

The advanced design of simplified sharing links respects the permissions of all recipients, regardless of whether they’re internal or external. This means that users will only gain the access levels (e.g., view, download, edit) that you authorize. It ensures secure, controlled sharing without compromising on ease of use.

An added benefit for internal users is the visibility of the file location. If permission is granted, internal users can see where the shared file is stored within the organization’s file system. This enables them to navigate directly to the file location, eliminating the need to access the file via the shared link every time. This feature is particularly valuable for efficient collaboration and knowledge sharing within teams.

Simplified sharing links combines convenience, control, and clarity in one package. Experience a more streamlined and intuitive way to share files both within and outside your organization, while always maintaining control over your files' security and accessibility.

Note: If you create a sharing link that tries to grant more permissions than internal people have, the internal sharing permissions will take effect for internal people. In other words: The link acts as a "pointer" for internal people. #9299

The file control bar is a static, always accessible bar located within the user interface of the document viewer or editor. It is designed to provide a consistent location where users can find and use critical file-related functions such as close or save. #8442, #8447

When you share a document that has a standard associated application, the link will now open the document directly in its respective app, instead of showing the document as a single file listing as it did previously. This enables recipients to immediately begin viewing or editing the shared document, eliminating the extra step of navigating from the file listing to the actual document.

For instance, if you share a Word document, the recipient can click on the link and the document will open directly in its associated application, such as OnlyOffice or Microsoft Word, depending on the settings. #9046, #9307

You can now move files to a parent folder through a simple drag and drop action. Instead of navigating through multiple steps to move files, you can now simply grab the files you want to move and then drop them onto the breadcrumb trail representing the parent folders.

For example, if you’re in a subfolder and want to move a file up one level, you can drag the file to the breadcrumb link representing the parent folder. The file will be moved instantly, eliminating the need for traditional cut-and-paste or move-to operations. #9052

This feature allows you to right-click on any empty space (whitespace) within your file view to access the context menu. This action was previously limited to direct file or folder interaction, but we’ve expanded its functionality to utilize the whitespace as well, enhancing your control over the workspace. This new context menu provides quick access to commonly used operations. For instance, you can create a new folder directly from the menu, offering an expedited process for organizing your files. In addition, you can easily view details for the current folder, including its contents, shared status, and more, all from the same context menu. #8921

Previously, viewing your spaces was limited to a tiles format. You can now switch to a list view that presents your projects in a clean, streamlined manner. This new view offers an overview of all your spaces, allowing for easy navigation and a concise visual of your work environment.

This list view provides additional information about the space:

in a more compact and organized manner. This is particularly useful for users who manage multiple spaces, as it allows for efficient scanning and selection. #9195

We are pleased to announce the availability of Infinite Scale 3.0.0 along with its clients for Web, Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS and Android.

Please find the full list of changes here:

The Antivirus interface ensures secure file sharing by protecting against Trojans, viruses, and other malicious software. It scans files using an external antivirus scanning engine before storing them, preventing the spread of infected files. The integration of antivirus scanners through ICAP (Internet Content Adaptation Protocol) allows offloading of scanning to a dedicated service, improving performance and scalability. The interface works, for example, with ClamAV, a comprehensive virus scanner that detects various forms of malware in different file types. Read more: Antivirus Service

Note: Because Infinite Scale is capable of asynchronous post-processing, the system can efficiently handle a large number of simultaneous file scans without causing delays or bottlenecks that keep end users waiting. Read more: Postprocessing Service.

The file firewall adds an additional layer of security to the file-level. With definable rules and criteria, the admin can restrict file uploads based, for example, on file extensions, mime types or even content. This granular control helps prevent unwanted or unauthorized uploads.

Note: The file firewall utilizes Infinite Scale’s policies service to check whether a requested operation is allowed or not. To do so, Open Policy Agent (OPA) is used to define the set of rules of what is permitted and what is not. Policies are written in the Rego query language. Read more: Policies Service.

Tags provide a flexible and intuitive way to categorize files. By assigning relevant tags to files, users can easily locate specific documents through powerful search functions. This eliminates the need to remember precise file names or navigate through complex folder structures, saving valuable time and effort. Unlike traditional folder-based systems, tags offer a flexible way to organize files that transcend rigid hierarchies. Users can assign multiple tags to a single file, enabling them to classify and retrieve documents using different criteria simultaneously. This adaptability allows for personalized organization methods that align with individual preferences and working styles.

Tags are saved as metadata on the storage without the need for a dedicated database to ensure resilience and scalability of the system.

Fulltext search revolutionizes the way you search and retrieve files, making it easier and more efficient to find the information you need. It enables you to search for files based on their content, not just their titles or metadata. This means you can enter keywords or phrases related to the actual text within documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and more. Say goodbye to manually scanning through countless files and folders — finding the right document is now just a search away. Fulltext search utilizes Apache Tika for more advanced content extraction. Apache Tika ensures lightning-fast search results, delivering near-instantaneous responses to your queries. Whether you have a large document repository or a vast number of files, full text search will provide you with swift and accurate results, enabling you to access the information you need without delay. With Apache Tika you can search the contents of files of the types: PDF, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, ODF, HTML, XML, EPUB, RTF, Tar, RAR, AR, CPIO, Zip, 7Zip, Gzip, BZip2 and many more…​ Read more: Search Service.

Applying a template is a breeze. When creating a new project space, simply right-click on a folder of your choice, select "Create Space from selection" and the entire folder structure, complete with subfolders and files, will be instantly generated for a project space. Save time and ensure consistency by eliminating the need to manually create folders and subfolders every time you start a new project or onboard a new team. Space templates ensure a consistent folder structure across projects providing a standardized, efficient, and customizable approach to organizing your documents. Space Templates are only available to users with the permission to create spaces.

Infinite Scale ships with the default user roles admin, space admin, user and user light. Each role has different permissions. For example, only space admins can create spaces, but people with the role "User" cannot create a space. With custom roles, you can now configure roles that fit the needs of your organization. For example, if you need custom roles for your school, you can configure the roles "Teacher" and "Pupil" and not give pupils the permission to create public links. If you are interested in creating custom roles, reach out to us on Talk.

File versions received a design overhaul so that you can go back easily in the version history of a file. With the new design of the file versions feature, you now have even easier access to a comprehensive version history for each file. Every time a file is modified or updated, a new version is created and stored, preserving a complete timeline of changes. This allows you to track and revert to previous versions as needed, ensuring data integrity and eliminating the risk of accidental data loss.

This update brings a range of functions to streamline user, group, and space administration, enhancing the overall management experience. Let’s explore the exciting new capabilities:

List All Spaces: With appropriate permissions, administrators can now view a comprehensive list of all spaces within the organization. The following attributes are visible:

This update focuses on fulfilling the legal requirements of Article 20 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) - the Right to Data Portability. This feature empowers users to exercise greater control over their personal data and ensures compliance with GDPR guidelines.

The GDPR Export feature enables users to easily export where and which personal data stored within Infinite Scale, in compliance with the Right to Data Portability outlined in Article 20 of the GDPR. Users can now request and receive an export of their personal data in a JSON file, saved to the users' personal files. The export can be requested at any time in self-service by the user.

The feature formerly known as "Uploader" has been renamed to "Secret File Drop", but the functionality stays the same: The Secret File Drop feature allows users to generate unique links that can be shared with external parties. Recipients can anonymously drop files through these links without the need for a registered account or visibility into other submissions. This ensures data privacy and eliminates the risk of unauthorized access.

Effortless File Collection: With Secret File Drop, collecting files becomes a seamless process. Simply create a file drop link, share it with recipients, and let them submit files directly without any additional steps or complications. This feature saves time and eliminates the need for manual file collection methods, such as email attachments or physical hand-ins.

Users can now choose three distinct view modes, enhancing file browsing and navigation options:

The Separate Trash Bin for Spaces introduces individual trash bins for each space within your organization’s file system. A space represents a dedicated area where teams collaborate on specific projects, departments, or initiatives. With this feature, accidental file deletions are a thing of the past, as files deleted within a space are now moved to a separate trash bin specific to that space.

The Deny Access feature, which is experimental and not ready for production environments, allows users to share folders with groups, but deny access to a single person in that group. Example: If you share the "Birthday Present" folder with all users in the organization, you want to exclude the one person whose birthday is coming up. This use case is now possible, but not yet production ready and disabled by default. To enable this feature, the variable FRONTEND_OCS_ENABLE_DENIALS needs to be set to true. Please contact ownCloud Support or give us your feedback via ownCloud Central so that we can finalize this long-awaited feature with the help of your testing.
