WebDAV endpoint is required

Error message

WebDAV endpoint is required

What it means

WebDavRemoteObjectStore.baseUrl() requires config.endpoint; every WebDAV request URL is built from it, so an empty endpoint throws immediately.

Solutions

1. Set the WebDAV endpoint URL (e.g. https://cloud.example.com/remote.php/dav/files/user) in the provider config
2. Validate endpoint before saving the config in the UI
3. Ensure config import/export preserves the endpoint field

Example fix

// before
{ kind: 'webdav', endpoint: '', directory: 'backups', ... }
// after
{ kind: 'webdav', endpoint: 'https://cloud.example.com/remote.php/dav/files/user', directory: 'backups', ... }

if (!providerConfig.endpoint?.trim()) blockSave('WebDAV endpoint is required')

const isWebDavConfigValid = (c: RemoteBackupProviderConfig): boolean => c.kind !== 'webdav' || Boolean(c.endpoint && c.endpoint.trim())

When it happens

Trigger: Configuring a webdav provider without an endpoint field (empty string/undefined) and calling any operation (put/get/list/delete) — all construct URLs via baseUrl().

Common situations: Settings form saved with blank endpoint; migration/import of provider config that dropped the endpoint field; trailing config typos.
