Description
Expected behaviour
iOS 13 includes the automation app to create shortcuts and allows for automation based on external events like connecting to a specific WiFi, arriving at a location. Based on other apps it looks like apps can offer hooks for certain tasks.
Nextcloud could/should offer such hooks for some tasks for user created scripts. One thing I can immediately think of would be a trigger to auto upload photos. This could be used to upload photos when connecting to a specific WiFi.
iOS version
13

Research direction
Start with Apple's Siri Shortcuts documentation linked in the issue and determine which iOS 13 automation hooks Nextcloud should expose. Define a concrete first hook, such as triggering photo uploads when joining a specific WiFi network, and consider the work complete when that hook is available for user-created shortcuts.
