What's the difference to sharing to the Paperless mobile app?

Hasn't Paperless Mobile not been maintained for 1.5 years?

Yeah I can see that now, didn't notice because it was still working. I'll check out this app then but why this is a new project and not a fork/transfer of ownership?

[–] Everyday0764@lemmy.zip 2 points 5 days ago

is there an updated fork?

Can you expand on the OIDC/OpenID support? Does it support SSO based authentication to Paperless? That's my biggest problem with PaperlessShare right now. I can't actually sign in because I use an SSO provider.

So I had a chance to try this out. It wasn't on Google Play Store, only F-Droid. There isn't really SSO support, you either login with User/Password or a token. Instead, I login with my browser, get the token and paste it in. That works fine, but an ideal world is just pop up an browser WebView and go through the flow, then grab the token. Maybe it was intentional, but PaperlessShare registered as an Open handler for PDFs and the share menu, whereas this is only share menu. This seems to mean that I need to grant file access, whereas the open handler didn't need that I think.

Overall, it does the job and gets my docs uploaded.
