Integration with owncloud
Integration with the on-premise, open source owncloud file sync and share would make mattermost a powerfull tool for team communication and collaboration. It seems the work on webhoks will enable this indirectly (https://mattermost.uservoice.com/forums/306457-general/suggestions/8786968-add-slack-like-integrations) but it would be great if you could provide dedicated owncloud integration so that files stored in owncloud can be shared and linked to from mattermost conversations.
Accepting Pull Requests ticket opened for anyone who wants to help add owncloud link previews as a start: https://mattermost.atlassian.net/browse/PLT-2233
Any volunteers?

Even if I don't go into integration, if I can just mount Nextcloud by WebDAV on mattermost and I'm satisfied.

So since my last comment, most core developers and community moved over from OwnCloud to the community-driven fork Nextcloud: https://nextcloud.com
And we are still very interested in nice integration with Mattermost! It actually sounds like a perfect task for someone looking to dive into both Mattermost and Nextcloud, so we put it up as a starter issue and will probably tackle it at one of our next events. :)

Dear Community admin,
ownCloud's Jan-Christoph Borchardt pointed you to their IRC if you have technical questions:
Integration would indeed be cool!
If you go forward with this and have any technical questions regarding ownCloud, you are welcome in our IRC channel #owncloud-dev (on freenode)!
Also, in the hope of furher facititating communication, I opened an ownCloud issue with your request, find it here:

That is, we use the WebDAV standard for files (CalDAV for calendars, CardDAV for contacts) and there is a Sharing API: https://doc.owncloud.org/server/9.0/developer_manual/core/ocs-share-api.html

I agree, integration between these two platforms would be great!

This is a great idea. I actually thought it was already, but that was for Gitlab. Actually, owncloud + gitlab + mattermost could be a whole OSS Developers Centre...
