Description

Hi there,
Calenders can be shared to public by an external link in NextCloud Calender:

grafik

  • Regular Nextcloud Users, can open that link, that is working
  • not logged in users (completely external users) can also see the given link
  • but: guest users do not have the right as the public users have and cannot see the calender via the public link
    Error message: Ressource is not permitted to guests.

In my opinion, this is a bug as public users have the right (which is correct) but guest users dont have.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue with a Nextcloud Calendar public link using a regular user, an external unauthenticated visitor, and a guest user. Inspect the guest permission handling for public calendar resources and the path producing “Ressource is not permitted to guests.” Done means guest users can view calendars shared through public links under the same conditions as external visitors.
