I'm curious about this. I could see this being useful for an educational institution that uses a cloudron for student accounts.
-
So I need to get this working.
It seems that Croodle never made it into Cloudron?
So I need to host Croodle somewhere else, then use it to build a login page.
Is it plausible to use https://www.limesurvey.org/ instead? I already have that installled.

Croodle is irrelevant (sorry, my bad, I asked about that in this thread, but it's not related at all. Croodle is just a tool similar to Easy Appointments/ Cal.com etc that @murgero was packaging, see https://github.com/jelhan/croodle and https://www.systemli.org/poll/ )
But yeah, it'd be nice to have some sort of way for people to sign themselves up to a Cloudron and then for (Super) Admin/ User Managers to be able to approve or reject them.
I'm not sure what's actually the best way of achieving that though. Any ideas @staff?
-
@jdaviescoates I'm looking at a https://form.io/ > N8N > Cloudron API workflow. No idea if that's a good way though.
All the bits are FOSS, but form.io is not available on Cloudron yet.

A post of @luckow has made me interested in baserow (which is already available as an app on Cloudron). With it you can define databases and fill these through a form. It already has the ability to trigger a webhook if an entry was created.
At the moment the webhook payload cannot be freely defined, but if it would add this feature one could make a simple sign up page for Cloudron. User would be created, but sadly one needs to make multiple requests to also send out an invitation mail and to add the user to groups. But this way the admin can decide on their own if the signup should be confirmed.
-
@fbartels very interesting! I also like the idea of an admin being able to adjust the payload for a webhook, but of course, that adds complexity and room for error.
Another option would be to have an n8n webhook catch Baserow's payload. From n8n (also available on Cloudron), you can format the response how you want and then make multiple API calls in order to properly create the Cloudron user.

Bingo!
-
@thetomester13 But why use two applications and increase the possibility of a malfunction, when one application alone could also do the job

Isn't it the case that Baserow lacks this feature? So to get something working today Baserow>N8N is the current best way? This may change in the future if Baserow gains that functionality?
-
@fbartels sure. One answer would be separation of concerns. Baserow isn't built to call multiple webhooks after a form submit, whereas n8n is built almost exactly for this reason (among others).
Additionally, as @Sam_uk said, this is a solution that could work right now, without having to wait for additional features being added to Baserow.
That being said, I do love the idea of being able to adjust a payload for webhooks - such flexibility!

Also interested in this use case - if any code is shared please let me know =] I will also look into giving this a shot
