Share notebooks and collaborate on them using Joplin Server 2.0

futureliferesearch · 2021-09-05T07:44:26.024Z

Can you please explain why this is not possibible?

Daeraxa · 2021-09-05T10:49:08.876Z

It used to exist with Nextcloud - Joplin Web API for Nextcloud | Joplin -but I believe changes in Nextcloud made it unsupportable.

Hi @laurent

Is there a way to use a custom layout for shared notes? Ideally my userstyle.css ?

Great feature, mega project! I now managed to get Joplin Server running on my Synology NAS with Docker

However, I would really like to share single notes rather than a whole notebook - of course, I could copy the notes I want to share into the shared notebook, but if you can make single notes shareable it would be great! And please adopt this feature for the mobile app!

This is already possible. Right click on the note, "publish note".

Great thanks, Sorry I've only looked at the "manual" here in the forum - havn't tried myself yet

I have a cloud server pro account
and i created a basic account for my daughter (she doesn't need more for now).

When I share a specific notebook to her, Joplin cloud says sharing feature is not enabled for recipient.

I share the same issue as Martin1.
So I am about to switch from WebDAV to Joplin Cloud to be able to collaborate. As I use Joplin for everything, the Pro plan is definitely worth it for me, but I would like to be able to share just a small notebook for some shopping lists etc. with my partner. He will not use Joplin much, so the Pro Version is quite expensive for his use case. It would therefore be terrific if a pro user could share a notebook with a basic user.

Really eager to see this working on Nextcloud

randre.wright · 2022-06-11T23:10:54.508Z

+1 for this request.

I would really like to have shared notebooks but I don't want to have a proprietary server backend to do so (and I have a working Nextcloud sync and would prefer to not need to install a dedicated server for one feature). Is there any way to do this now without Joplin server?

koturk · 2022-08-27T21:32:45.644Z

Awesome feature, I just setup Joplin server for this feature and its working great.

philrasch · 2022-10-08T22:44:52.385Z

For those of us using shared notebooks with joplin cloud, can you clarify whether all people sharing a notebook need to be a paid subscriber, and whether only the owner of the notebooks needs to be a pro or teams member? I am trying to introduce my colleagues to Joplin with the minimum investment so I might suggest they start with the basic subscription while I use the higher level to setup the notebook.

Thanks, Phil

kiteloopdesign · 2022-10-22T06:57:10.304Z

Same question as philrasch here. I am about to upgrade to Pro Plan but I am hesitant as it is not clear whether the person who is being shared with should also have Pro Plan. It does not make sense to me he/she also needs to have the plan, as I would be sharing very scarcely

Herve5 · 2022-10-22T14:41:27.013Z

Indeed, I understood that both accounts must be pro or team for the sharing to happen : Joplin cloud plans, Pro share vs Team users - #2 by laurent
Now, @kiteloopdesign , there are various ways to export a given note if this happens scarcely -among others, if I understand correctly, one can just publish it in the form of a web page. So, easy export, but no sharing...

kiteloopdesign · 2022-10-23T15:51:12.728Z

thanks Herve5 for the answer.

Additionally, I am not sure whether it is possible to share notebooks when NOT using Joplin cloud but some private server (eg owncloud). From this github issue it looks like it is possible:

@kiteloopdesign , I read above (by @koturk ) that indeed one can benefit from all features when setting one’s own server...

crapp · 2022-12-01T13:15:38.172Z

We are currently searching a new notes application / wiki and we are looking at joplin because some developers already use as their personal note taking app. The important feature for us would be a sharing service that we are able to host ourself. I found joplin server but is not well documented. I found something on docker hub.
Will this product be available for everyone? We are willing to pay for joplin Server. Joplin Cloud is a no go.

Regards

Joplin server is available for anyone to host themselves. If you don't find the documentation sufficient, maybe you can find extra install information on this forum? I know others have asked about it in the past.

Joolin cloud is just a Joplin server hosted by the Joplin company, so there isn't really difference to the user. If you're worried about hosting location or the shared host, perhaps you can contact them and work out a deal (I don't know if they do that).

There's an install guide here: joplin/README.md at dev · laurent22/joplin · GitHub
