[Feature request] Filter/limit Immich integration (for Immich partner sharing)

[TheMidelar]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The Immich integration is amazing, but it gets a little confused when Immich's Partner Sharing is enabled. All my partner's pictures appear on the timeline, even before we met.

Describe the solution you'd like
Let me pick an Immich Album to integrate with Reitti, instead of all media on my Immich account. Combined with Immich Workflows, I can make a dynamic album that has only my pictures, and thus solving this issue.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I'm not aware of a way to achieve this with the current features in Reitti and Immich.

Additional context
One downside of the album filter solution is that any trips together with my partner will now not have her pictures in Reitti. This is a much more complex problem to solve though, and I'd already be very happy with a simple album filter.

Hi @TheMidelar,

oh I never thought about that. I will need to setup this up and see how it currently behaves. I am the sole user of reitti and immich here at home ;)

I think the album idea could work and we skip the ones of the Partner Sharing. If this is even possible.
If your partner also uses reitti, we could extend the sharing functionality to also be able to share other users photos to other users.

Then you could in theory:

• see only your photos on the map from the dedicated album
• your partner sees her photos of her album in here map
• now she shares here data in reitti with you over the user sharing feature, then this would also pull in her photos.

How does this sound?

Hey @dgraf-gh,

Thanks for the quick reply!
Currently, there's no way yet to filter media based on their owner. I made an issue about it a month ago: immichFrame/ImmichFrame#687

As you can see, someone came up with a good workaround: using Immich Workflows to dynamically put pictures made with my phone model (from EXIF data) into an album. While this solution isn't perfect (for example, I've had different phone models over the years), there are enough filters available to make a pretty good selection. For the time being, I will likely made a workflow that adds all pictures into an album that are NOT made by my partner's phone model.
Long story short, if I can point Reitti to an album in Immich, I'm pretty sure I can get this album filtered correctly within Immich. And if Immich ever adds a filter for media owner, then it will be perfect.

Currently my partner doesn't use Reitti, but I can imagine she will and what you describe sounds great! That way the Immich integration is truly per-user, and any sharing of data happens within Reitti. Sounds great to me! :)

That sounds good. Then lets do it like that:

• in the immich integration i will add an optional album selection to only search in that
• i will add a checkbox to the Share Access per use to allow sharing your own photos with other users

That way it seems pretty open to cover more use-cases.

Thank you for the suggestion.
