The API seems to have some peculiar restrictions, specifically that you cannot share the Downloads folder and no entire SD cards (only subfolders on the card). Maybe Nextcloud offered this functionality before and so couldn't restore it with the new API?

Also, unsurprisingly, data/ and obb/ are also forbidden, so the API is unusable for a backup tool.

data/ and obb/ also weren't accessible with the "manage all files" permission, nor were they accessible to built-in apps from Google (except the ones that own the files, of course).
