## File storage

We implemented a new file storage backend, that was yet to be the largest single change of QFieldCloud ever.

- **Speed** - make file handling equally fast for both small and large projects.
- **Resticted project files** - limit who can change sensitive files.
- **Resumable large file downloads** - make downloading on unstable networks much more effient.
- **Allow uploads of files up to 20GB** - because spatial data is heavy.

---

## Projects

- **Shared datasets** - upload your basemaps once, use it within all projects in your organization.
- **Attachments on demand** - don't overload your device with sometimes unnecessary attachments.

---

## Secrets

- **Add organization level secrets** - having to declare the same secrets for each individual project was tiring.
- **Assign secrets to individual users** - best practices matter!

---

## Single sign-on (SSO) support

- **Sign in with Google** on [app.qfield.cloud](https://app.qfield.cloud/) - very, very soon.
- Dedicated/on-premises instances are ready to support **your** OIDC provider.

---

## On-premises and custom apps on top of QFieldCloud

- **Multiple storage backends** - do not limit yourself to just Object Storage (S3).
- **Store attachments on separate storage** - store attachments directly on your WebDAV server.
- **Adding custom jobs** - write your own workflow for your own needs on top of QFieldCloud.
- **Translatable user interface** - QFieldCloud speaks your language.
