Summary

Searches Nextcloud files and folders using the supplied term, then emits each result as a separate n8n item. Set Max Results to control the number of returned entries; it defaults to 30.

Inputs

  • Search Term (required) — Term to search for. The node sends it to Nextcloud’s file search endpoint.
  • Max Results — Maximum number of results to request; defaults to 30.

Output shape

A list of items, one per entry in the Nextcloud response’s entries array.

Each entry is returned as its JSON data and remains paired with its input item. An empty entries array produces no output items. Request or OCS API errors are thrown unless Continue On Fail is enabled, in which case an item with an error field is returned.
