Nextcloud - how to restore many deleted files

@Mario-Jakovina said in Nextcloud - how to restore many deleted files:
Does anyone here offers support for Nextcloud or some kind of managed Nextcloud servers?
(yesterday we solved this problem manually so I am asking for future, not for this problem specifically)Are you looking for someone who can offer support that includes a Bulk Recovery option?

We already had few serious issues with it (bugs with mainstream Intel GPU never solved etc.) but we switched to it due to pricing advantage.
How is NC interacting with the GPU at all? That's very strange. You have this in a VM, right?

I don't believe there is a mass restore function. You'll likely need to do something like this through the cli.
Google doesn't have that, either. We had customers learn that the hard way!

@DustinB3403 Thank you.
I must say that I am a bit disappointed with Nextcloud. This should be normal feature.
We already had few serious issues with it (bugs with mainstream Intel GPU never solved etc.) but we switched to it due to pricing advantage.
However, I can't say it is as reliable as Dropbox, so far.What does Nextcloud cost?
Totally free. We run it here, too.

I don't think that being FOSS is excuse for missing this feature.
Who HAS this feature? The biggest player on the market doesn't have it.
You can always restore from backup as a means to something like this. I think that that is the intended way back. That's something that big closed source players lack.

(yesterday we solved this problem manually so I am asking for future, not for this problem specifically)Yup, NTG definitely does that. We've been supporting NextCloud for a long time. I'm sure Bundy does as well.

@scottalanmiller I'm pretty sure Dropbox, MS etc all have a "select all and recover" type option.
I'd have to look again but I'm pretty sure this is a feature.

MS does not. We had MS lose data and they have no recovery mechanism at all. DropBox might.

DropBox might.
That is what the OP said.

Dropbox have tool to "Rollback" to certain point in time,

From ShartPoint they definitely have a trashbin function. I'm not aware of any such feature for other products from MS.

SharePoint is a wiki, not a competitor for cloud storage. Microsoft's cloud storage product is OneDrive.

@scottalanmiller You missed it.
Shart Point (purposely misspelled) because MS sh*t their pants at the awful product design and attempted to sell it like the greatest thing since sliced bread.

NextCloud has this. Super easy to use.

No it does not.

You can revert things individually in the GUI. That is it.
Not even by folder. There is no revert options at the folder level.
-
Sure does, just select or "select all" and choose "restore".
-
@scottalanmiller Have you tried using it? Does it actually work?

Just did. Yeah, works great.

I saw issues of it not working, or not working with more than 3 files etc.
I'm curious now.

Restore from trash has always worked just fine for me.
I was discussing the restore to point in time that was specifically asked about.
