Productivity Username and password Windmill docs

Upload, move and share files on your Nextcloud instance from any Windmill script, flow or app.

Set up in 3 steps

Collect your instance details

You need the base URL of your instance — what the address bar shows, such as https://nextcloud.example.com — plus the username and password of the account the scripts should act as.

Add the resource in Windmill

Open Resources, add a resource of type nextcloud, and fill baseUrl, username and password.

Run your first script

Fork any script below and list a folder to confirm the connection before writing anything.

Scripts

Questions

Should I use my own account?

Better not. Create a dedicated account for automation and share with it only the folders the scripts need — its password ends up in a resource, and its name ends up in every file it touches.

Are my credentials stored on the hub?

Never. They live only in your own Windmill workspace, encrypted at rest.
