Description

Hello,

Looking at the documentation here: https://docs.nextcloud.com//server/18/admin_manual/configuration_files/external_storage/openstack.html

It only shows how to configure Openstack v2, not Openstack v3 (supported at least since NC16).

I was not able to find the right values from OpenRC file to make it work.
An update of the documentation would be welcome.

If somebody has the information, I am ready to update the documentation.

Research direction

Start with the OpenStack external storage page at docs.nextcloud.com/server/18/admin_manual/configuration_files/external_storage/openstack.html and compare its OpenStack v2 guidance with the OpenRC values needed for v3. Update the page with verified v3 configuration information, while preserving the existing v2 guidance, and confirm that the documented values explain how to configure the supported setup.
