Add WebDAV Account

Add a WebDAV storage account to PlaidCloud for importing and exporting data files using WebDAV-compatible servers such as Nextcloud, ownCloud, or Apache.

WebDAV Server Setup

Ensure the following are available from your WebDAV server administrator:

The WebDAV endpoint URL (e.g. https://nextcloud.yourcompany.com/remote.php/dav/files/username/)
A username with access to the target directory
A password or app-specific password for authentication

Note: Many cloud services expose a WebDAV interface. For example, Nextcloud uses https://your-server/remote.php/dav/files/{username}/ and ownCloud uses https://your-server/remote.php/webdav/. Check your provider's documentation for the correct URL.

You should now have everything you need to add your WebDAV account to PlaidCloud Document.
