How to only "one way" add bookmarks?

[Offerel]

Is there something, so that i can do "One way"-add operations, without to interfere already saved bookmarks? For example, on most of my devices, i will do full-both-way-syncs, so that all bookmarks are synced to every device. But sometimes there is one device, from where i need to only "add" new bookmarks. This should be added in the browser in a special folder (subfolder) and on the server (Nextcloud) in "Other Bookmarks".

I have tried to use the one-way sync. I defined a subfolder in the browser and as target on the server "Other Bookmarks". When now a one-way-sync occurs, a new added bookmark in the browser subfolder is synced to the server, but on the server all existing bookmarks in "Other Bookmarks" are removed and only the new added bookmark is added.

I dont want to remove all the existing bookmarks on the server. I want to only add new bookmarks here. Is there some workflow, where i can do that?

Hi @Offerel
I recommendd to use the default "merge" strategy for this. It's not strictly speaking one way. But if you never remove existing bookmarks on the devices where you only add new bookmarks it should be fine. Let me know if that solves your question :)

Ahh this works. Many thx. In the meantime, i have created a small webextension, which communicates directly via the rest api of nextcloud bookmarks. Nothing fancy, only some options to save the credentials and some snippets to check if the bookmark already exists and if not, click a toolbar button to save the bookmark there. No bookmark API in the browser needed, only tabs and storage. > https://codeberg.org/Offerel/ncbm
