Open sankethpb opened 4 years ago

sankethpb commented 4 years ago

What happened:

Unable to use http/https url in sparkle share, https protocol doesnt seem to be supported.

What I expected to happen:

http/https protocol should work as expected

Any update on this would be appreciated. Thank you.

The problem here is saving the access data. HTTP/HTTPS asks for username and password, these must be stored securely or be requested with every request.

This would mean a lot of work in the GUI but also in the security area to store the access data in a secure way. Therefore SS works with SSH keys, they don't have this problem.
