sharing to other users not possible

Works fine here. Can you please give a more detailed description of what is happening? Are there any errors in the Nextcloud or browser console log?

[Githopp192]

That what i see, when i try to choose a user in the appr. context --> (Restore user exists and is enabled)

Debug	no app in context	Deprecated event type for \OCP\Collaboration\Resources::loadAdditionalScripts: null		seconds ago

i also tried to enable "autocompletion"->

i tried to use another Browser (those examples were based on MS Edge). I tried with Firefox ... same result

[Githopp192]

i think i know what it is .. is this per design ?

First the whole Board needs to be shared with this person, where you wish to share the card. Afterwards you are able to share the card with this person (but only with this person).

[juliushaertl]

Yes, you will need to share the whole board to users or groups first, before you can assign individual people to it.

It probably makes sense to give a more clear hint about that in the assignment input.

[Githopp192]

yes, of course .. this would help, if there would be any popup, which shows the direction the user need to go.

on the other hand .. could there not be a sense (or reason) behind, that one wants to share the whole board, and others want to share only a specific card ?

[juliushaertl]

Then this would be a separate feature request, which i assume would be something that is not likely to happen as sharing individual cards only will add a huge layer of complexity both interface and implementation wise.

[Githopp192]

ah .. yes ..understood .. that might be true, related to application complexity.

btw .. once i did open a feature request https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/19411 "Feature request: HELP Contexts for APPS", which would improve the user experience in the apps in general
