Description

⚠️ This issue respects the following points: ⚠️
  • This is a bug, not a question or a configuration/webserver/proxy issue.
  • This issue is not already reported on Github (I've searched it).
  • I agree to follow Nextcloud's Code of Conduct.
What went wrong, what did you observe?

Adding a group "Users" to the shares fails if there is already a share with the identifier "Users", but of a different kind (i.e. contact group)

What did you expect, how polls should behave instead?

Adding a group with the same name of another share, but of a different type should be possible.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Reproduce adding the “Users” group when a same-named contact group exists, then trace the share-add path. Done means both share types can coexist under the same name and the regression is covered by a test.
