      Ownpad is a Nextcloud application that allows to create and open Etherpad documents. This application requires to have access to an instance of Etherpad to work properly.

      I can use an Etherpad instance on the same Cloudron server, but the Cloudron Etherpad application doesn't allow the creation of public pads, so I have to use the Etherpad API. Is this possible?

        @jeau sure, while considered experimental, it's possible. See "Create access restricted pads":

          Indeed @mario, but the issue is on the other side, I can't access to the Etherpad app installed on the same Cloudron server. There's no publics pads access and the API seems not activated

            @jeau API access should work. Does the test call in the docs work - https://cloudron.io/documentation/apps/etherpad/#api-access ?

              it works fine,

              sorry @girish I should have read the Etherpad Cloudron app doc and also the Ownpad one, because I have to enable the detection of pad mimetype by NextCloud https://github.com/otetard/ownpad/#mimetype-detection.

              In the terminal, I copied /app/code/resources/config/mimetypemapping.dist.json to /app/data/config/mimetypemapping.json

              and then I added in this file pad'': ["application/x-ownpad"],

              we could add this information to the Cloudron documentation of the NextCloud app, next time I'll read it 😉
