How to proper setup Nextcloud Notes in koreader?

Hi everyone!

I have been using koreader for long time now and found it very useful for my academic work. I used to export all my highlights to joplin but in version 2024.11 I found there are a new option: Nextcloud Notes. Since I have a selfhosted server with NC which I use as a replacement for Google Drive, I find this option interesting.

In the wiki at Koreader's Github page, there is no documentation to setup Nextcloud Notes, so I did the next steps:

In highlight export select Nextcloud Notes and configure like this:

URL: https://myserver.tld/nextcloud
Username: my-nc-user
App Password: 11111-22222-33333-44444-55555

Just for clarification, my NC server is not on a subdomain but in a subfolder (/nextcloud).

What I tried:
  1. Using my normal NC password. Did not work!
  2. Create an app password in NC -> Config -> Security. Then i used the 5 blocks of 5 characters each in the password (as my example). Did not work!
  3. Remove the hyphens and put the 25 characters continue. Did not work!
  4. Add a slash after the url: https://myserver.tld/nextcloud/ with the app password both with and without hyphens. Did not work!
  5. Add the complete address to Nextcloud Notes: https://myserver.tld/nextcloud/apps/notes with the app password both with and without hyphens. Did not work!

I would like to ask you if someone knows how to setup Nextcloud Notes with koreader and could help me.

Thanks in advance!
