Web Applications

Administrators have the ability to provide additional web applications to their users. This feature is especially useful for organizations that want to integrate third-party tools or provide internally developed apps within the OpenCloud environment.

Installing a Web Application

You can install a web application in just a few steps:

Open the App Store

Use the Application Switcher in the top navigation bar of OpenCloud and navigate to the App Store.

App Store

Download the Application

Find and download the application you want to install.

Extract and copy

Unzip the downloaded archive and copy the extracted folder into the web application directory.
By default, this path is:

opencloud-compose/config/opencloud/apps
hinweis

If you are adding an app to an already running system, verify whether the /web/assets/apps directory exists inside your $OC_DATA_DIR. If it does not exist, create it manually.

Restart OpenCloud

Restart the OpenCloud stack using the following command:

docker compose restart

Access in OpenCloud

Once the app is copied to the correct location, it will automatically appear in the OpenCloud interface.

Configure a Web Application

Some OpenCloud apps require additional configuration — for example, the External Sites app.

These configurations can be managed in the following file:

opencloud-compose/config/opencloud/apps/external-sites/manifest.json
hinweis

Configuration details vary between apps. For specific setup instructions, please refer to the official documentation of the respective app.
