[Bug]: File URLs not backwards compatible after upgrade to Nextcloud Hub 7 (28.0.5) about server

[SystemKeeper]

If you have the links in a spreadsheet anyway and all your links end with "openfile=" you could try to translate them to an internal link:

=CONCATENATE("https://[HOST]/index.php/f/", RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-SEARCH("openfile=", A1)-8))

Just quick and dirty, but might work.

Thanks for your report.

The internal link is backwards-compatible / stable.
Actual URLs used by the frontend probably not.

Example for internal link (you find them in the sharing tab):
https://[HOST]/index.php/f/[FILEID]

I don't see an issue here but will forward it to clarify.

This has come up a couple times now. If nothing else might suggest an opportunity to clarify the documentation a bit.

From a usability standpoint, when linking to files in a durable way is the recommendation to NOT right-click "Copy Link" when browsing files and hovering over a file? That seemed to be the most straightforward way to do it (that produced the link that doesn't work after upgrade).

What is the best way to get the internal link for users browsing the file UI?

Thanks for the recommendation. I'll try that out as a way to fix things.

If you open the share tab in the right sidebar, there’s an option to copy „Internal link“
