[Feature Request] Circles Integration #1850

Open wdfee opened 5 years ago

wdfee commented 5 years ago

It would be great if mails could be sent to circles. If the name of the circle is entered in the "To" field, it should be selectable like groups. For privacy the same sharing settings should be used as for groups. If "Restrict users to only share with users in their groups" is checked, this should restrict sharing to own circles, too. --> Link to the circles documentation

cc @daita for Circles: Do you have more pointers so someone could pick this up?

ArtificialOwl commented 5 years ago

Well, there is an API and I am available if anyone want to work on this !

jancborchardt commented 5 years ago

@daita link to the API and some basic how and where to start would be nice I think. :)

ArtificialOwl commented 5 years ago

sure: https://github.com/nextcloud/circles/wiki/PHP-API-v1 also: maxence@nextcloud.com

(it's the same documentation than the only linked in OP)

Did something ever become of this?

ChristophWurst commented 2 years ago

No

BiglifeMatt commented 2 years ago

@ChristophWurst It does look like Groups do work this way... I thought I saw something somewhere that Groups was going to be phased out for Circles within Contacts. Do you know if that is the case?

ChristophWurst commented 2 years ago

Sounds like https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/13478

I really wonder why this feature request is not demanded much more. In our school all parents communication runs via email. Nasty broadcast to all for any topic. Also messenger apps would be used in broadcast mode. So combining a Collective/Circle with the ability to send Emails would reduce the audience to that Collective with a specific topic. Look at googlegroups. THIS is still used sometimes because it was an easy way of managing mailing lists.

Same here. This would be a really nice feature! Therefore I would be happy to see it on the roadmap: https://github.com/orgs/nextcloud/projects/61/views/4

Btw. thanks for the work on this app!

This feature would be very helpful for us as well. The subscription / description to the mailing list / circles could be managed by the user instead of an admin.

Thanx!
