WOPI (Office Document Editing)

OxiCloud integrates with Collabora Online and OnlyOffice via the WOPI protocol, letting users edit documents, spreadsheets, and presentations directly in the browser.

How It Works

  1. User opens a document (.docx, .xlsx, .pptx, .odt, etc.)
  2. OxiCloud generates a WOPI access token and redirects to the editor
  3. The editor fetches the file from OxiCloud via WOPI endpoints
  4. Edits are saved back via PutFile
