@zak39 Hi, can you review it?

Hi @mosi-kha 👋

Thank you for your Pull Request 😉

I don't understand your need.
What is your use case?

The spaceId is automatically incremented.

@zak39 Hi 👋
Thanks for the review. Our case is that when we want to create a workspace, we must create it with our spaceId, not automatically, because we sync with other tenant schemas/systems. In this PR, I created a method that allows users can also create a workspace by custom spaceId.

Do you mean, you have different schemas and systems (MySql? PosgreSQl? Oracle? etc.) synced together, but they don't increment the spaceId when you create a workspace?
Can you give more details about your issue?

What happens when you create a groupfolder outside a workspace context?

In our case, we want sync with other service that manage tenant, in that service created tenants id is integer but in retreive and save into workspace, there is no guarantee that the IDs return in order.
with this method, we can insure workspace will created by correct id.

@mosi-kha , this is not a recommended way to do so. Tricking the id generation and using direct OCA Workspace classes neither.
You should create a table dedicated to your tenants with a relation tenant_id -> workspace_id. As you're ready to call workspace PHP code, we can guess you've already have a Nextcloud app.
And now, the best way to operate with workspace is to use the OCS public APIs.
