Hey everyone,

I’m reaching out because I could use some help or guidance here. So, I kinda ended up being the go-to person for collecting and storing data in a project I’m involved in with my team. We’ve got a bunch of data, like tens of thousands of files, and we’re using nextcloud to make it accessible to our users. The thing is, we’re facing a bit of a challenge with the search function on nextcloud when accessed through a public link. Being that there isn’t a search function. While we really appreciate the features it offers from an administrative standpoint, it’s not working that well for our users.

I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions or resources that could point us in the right direction for this project? It would be super awesome if it’s something open-source and privacy retaining. 😄

Thanks a bunch in advance!

    Already read this? https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/39162

    Seems like there is active work on improving search with nextcloud.

    I've never heard of it before this.

    I use Mega. It has a search function. No idea how fast it would be in your use case though.

    Not open source though.

      Yeah our problem is we are hosting everything on a website for public use. I didn't know that they were working on public search I will give that a read thank you!
