Hi iTop Community! 👋

I'm excited to share a new third-party extension I've developed: iTop Integration for Nextcloud v1.0.0

What is it?
A comprehensive integration that brings iTop ITSM functionality directly into Nextcloud, enabling seamless access to tickets, incidents, and configuration items without leaving your collaboration platform.

🎯 Perfect for organizations using both iTop and Nextcloud - eliminates context switching between systems and enhances productivity for IT teams, help desk agents, and end users.

✨ Key Features:
- 🔗 Rich Link Previews - Paste iTop ticket URLs in Nextcloud Talk, Deck, or Collectives for instant rich previews with ticket details
- 🔍 Unified Search - Search your iTop tickets directly from Nextcloud's search bar (shows tickets you created or are assigned to)
- 🎯 Smart Content Integration - Insert iTop ticket references while writing documents or chatting
- ⚙️ Real-Time Dashboard - Monitor connection status, user profile, and open ticket counts
- 🛠️ Professional Admin Panel - Centralized configuration with connection testing and user monitoring
- 🔐 Secure Architecture - Dual-token system ensuring data isolation and supporting Portal users with SAML/external auth

📋 Technical Requirements:
- iTop 1.3+ with REST API enabled
- Nextcloud 30.0+
- PHP 8.1+
- Optional: Portal Personal Tokens Extension for enhanced Portal user support

🔐 Security Model:
- Application token (admin-level) for API queries with encrypted storage
- Personal tokens used only for one-time identity verification (never stored)
- Person ID mapping ensures users only see their own data
- Works seamlessly with Portal users and external authentication

📦 Current Status:
Production-ready v1.0.0 available on GitHub: https://github.com/LexioJ/integration_itop
✅ Complete installation and configuration documentation
✅ Professional release with comprehensive testing

🚀 Planned Future Enhancements:
- Advanced ticket filtering and sorting
- Multi-Language support
- Configuration Item browsing and management
- Enhanced notification system with email digest

🤝 Looking for Feedback!
As an iTop community member, I'd greatly appreciate feedback from anyone willing to test the integration. The GitHub repository includes detailed setup instructions and configuration guides.

This extension aims to bridge the gap between iTop's powerful ITSM capabilities and Nextcloud's collaboration features, making both platforms more valuable when used together.

Documentation: Complete README with installation guide included

Thanks for your time, and I look forward to your thoughts! 🙏

Best regards,
Alex
