Description

Nextcloud users from different organizations can achieve collaboration through simple configuration

For example: Organization A and Organization B both use Nextcloud, and administrators of both parties generate trust keys in the system. After adding each other and passing the other party's review, collaboration can be achieved. Collaboration includes sharing files, and personnel from both parties can communicate through instant messaging through Talk.

Because cross-organizational collaboration needs to consider data privacy issues, it is recommended to add shared review functions and shared auditing functions. At the same time, the respective administrators can set who can collaborate with the outside.
