PCloud cloud storage

Feature Requests
1

Hello everyone, I’m a new SFOS user in Switzerland, in the process of finding how to move all my essential things to SFOS on a Sony XA2.
I see there are options to add several cloud storage accounts for backup or other purposes. I see no provision for adding unspecified cloud accounts.
A couple of years ago I bought a 500GB lifetime subscription to what is considered a secure cloud storage from a Swiss provider called “PCloud”. It can be accessed by web page or by an android app.
Is there any way I can add Pcloud as a default cloud account to my SFOS phone?

Thanks Pawel, I’ll try that!

Also, rclone works on SailfishOS. That’s how I used pCloud.

And pCloud supports webdav so the Cargodock app can be used.

I think the Nextcloud implementation is basically webdav.
Thats why I configured it with the webdav credentials of my cloud provider … and it works.

Ghostcloud can also access generic WebDAV shares…

Thank you for your help everyone!

The last reply on this request was in 2021. Do you know of any new developments? Maybe also from the pCloud people?

I couldn’t find afore mentioned webdav support with pcloud …
The server https://webdav.pcloud.com is answering, but keeps on asking for credentials in a loop.
And there is no statement to be found on pcloud.com that webdav is supported (?anymore?). So I couldn’t make it to work.

At least the Android app is working nicely in Sailfish OS.

Just as a general remark if one is not tied to pCloud but is just looking for a cloud sync provider that works without issues on SailfishOS: I’ve been using Jottacloud for a few years now.

It has the usual mobile apps but also a commandline sync tool that works on Linux and SailfishOS: Jottacloud Command-line Tool | Jottacloud Help Center

I think it also supports other Unixes.

You can try every WebDav (e.g. Nextcloud) provider. Or you create your own Nextcloud instance at home running on a Raspberry. Or you try to install Nextcloud on a Jolla Mind2, maybe this will work (just an idea).

With thy Nextcloud account in settings at least the backup, the calendar and maybe the contacts from the People app will work. For file sharing use the GhoustCloud app in store.

Tl;Dr: WebDav, WebCal & WebCard will work
PS: There is some discussions here in the forum about WebCard.
