[Feature Request] Sharing passwords grouped by tags/folders with multiple users/groups. #536
Comments
Sharing multiple Passwords, however they are grouped (by tag, folder or vault or whatever esotheric structure you choose) is currently very hard to implement. You are suggesting to force a user to create a vault, that is simply not happening. I don't think nextcloud itself has the ability to force a user to do anything, so this is out of the question. (also it is very bad style to force a user to do anything ;) ) However, since sharing is a widely requested feature, we should think about how to implement this. Your last sentence gave me an idea_ Being able to use vaults shared with a group of users will greatly enhance team's workflow It should be not that hard to implement exactly this: showing a single vault to multiple users, even read/write permissions shouldn't be that hard. But, this takes further consideration before we can start implementing such thing. But thank you for your input! |
Thanks for considering the Feature Request. Please let me know if you think a bounty would help. |
I may be willing to help with this as my family and coworkers could benefit from it. If all existing security issues were resolved and closed this may be viable in my workplace. This would allow me to devote some work time to this as well. DISCLAIMER: I am not much of a Javascript developer although I have written some sizeable code in TypeScript. |
So, if we want to share password with multiple users identified by a group name (or a label or anything) this issue is the place to work from? |
I guess so, I'm able to help. Just like to know if there's any work done on the matter, yet? |

Feature request
User type: Logged-in
User level: Beginners
Description
Being able to share a list of passwords with a group of users would be very convenient for teams.
Several feature requests have been opened in the past to enhance sharing a group of passwords: #272, #340 and #243, to name a few. The use case is clear: having shared passwords with group of users. Some people like the way LastPass does it (you create "directories" of passwords and then share the directory).
I understand that sharing passwords with a nextcloud group of users seems non doable, because the way Passman is storing vaults and passwords. My proposal is to create a separated vault for each group of passwords that have to be shared, and to share the master key with users and groups. As groups don't have a public/private key pair for sharing, sharing with a group involves tracking which users are in a group and launch actions in the group membership changes.
New behaviour:
They way I see this group sharing is:
Benefit / value
Being able to use vaults shared with a group of users will greatly enhance team's workflow
Risk / caveats
It requires significant work, not only in the server side but also in plugins and mobile interfaces.
