I'm quite happy with https://github.com/OCA/knowledge/tree/8.0/document_wopi 
but never came around to migrate this to more recent Odoo versions. Should be 
pretty simple though.

  • Editing/Viewing attachments (mainly Word and Excel) directly on server without the need to download locally

    Hello,

     

    I am investigating a possibility of allowing somehow editing and viewing of attachments without the need to download and reupload them locally. I would like for Odoo to replace any local storage and save users from need to download/upload the files. DMS module comes to mind as a good base for orgnaizing that. I can see multiple building blocks for this but I am interested if anyone has taken this idea any further. Some of the possible building blocks could be:

     

     

    I was able to access demo of Odoo 14.0 Enterprise with new possibility to create "live" spreadsheets. Don't know how that is done (is it 14.0's module google_spreadsheets?) but that won't allow for opening your own Excel nor Word files :-(

     

    Has anyone attempted anything like this succesfully? Can you give any pointers please? Thank you

     

    Best regards
