Hello.

How to use webdev protocol in a desktop application? So that it’s the same as in mobile?

I am developing a program to implement synchronization between devices of video files, etc., as well as their playback (viewer)
I have implemented the web dev protocol there, I connect, everything is OK, I synchronize the files and open all the files in onlyoffice word, excel, etc.

But I can’t connect the same protocol to my linux (fedora) desktop PC directly to the program, yes, I can use my own file manager, but I would like to see all the files there directly in onluoffice!

Also, is it possible to implement colobations with others using the webdev protocol or over sockets or something else?

Because in order to get the changes in the document now, you need to save and restart it, the changes don’t happen in real time!

Hello @ArtemBelykh

Are you using Desktop Editors in your environment?

I use the onlyoffice editor, if that’s what you mean.

This does not answer my question. Let me be more specific - have you installed ONLYOFFICE Docs on a dedicated server or you are using Desktop Editors right from your PC?

If Desktop Editors are being used, then I’m afraid there is no way to see the list of files from your WebDAV storage right in the app. For that an interface is required with further development of a provider for Desktop Editors: Adding a DMS provider | ONLYOFFICE
