-----------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Paths are specified as `remote:path`
|
|
|
|
Paths may be as deep as required, eg `remote:directory/subdirectory`.
|
|
|
|
The initial setup for OneDrive involves getting a token from
|
|
Microsoft which you need to do in your browser. `rclone config` walks
|
|
you through it.
|
|
|
|
Here is an example of how to make a remote called `remote`. First run:
|
|
|
|
rclone config
|
|
|
|
This will guide you through an interactive setup process:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
e) Edit existing remote
|
|
n) New remote
|
|
d) Delete remote
|
|
r) Rename remote
|
|
c) Copy remote
|
|
s) Set configuration password
|
|
q) Quit config

See the [remote setup docs](/remote_setup/) for how to set it up on a
|
|
machine with no Internet browser available.
|
|
|
|
Note that rclone runs a webserver on your local machine to collect the
|
|
token as returned from Microsoft. This only runs from the moment it
|
|
opens your browser to the moment you get back the verification
|
|
code. This is on `http://127.0.0.1:53682/` and this it may require
|
|
you to unblock it temporarily if you are running a host firewall.
|
|
|
|
Once configured you can then use `rclone` like this,
|
|
|
|
List directories in top level of your OneDrive
|
|
|
|
rclone lsd remote:
|
|
|
|
List all the files in your OneDrive
|
|
|
|
rclone ls remote:
|
|
|
|
To copy a local directory to an OneDrive directory called backup
|
|
|
|
rclone copy /home/source remote:backup
|
|
|
|
### Getting your own Client ID and Key ###
|
|
|
|
You can use your own Client ID if the default (`client_id` left blank)
|
|
one doesn't work for you or you see lots of throttling. The default
|
|
Client ID and Key is shared by all rclone users when performing
|
|
requests.
|
|
|
|
If you are having problems with them (E.g., seeing a lot of throttling), you can get your own
|
|
Client ID and Key by following the steps below:
|
|
|
|
1. Open https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_RegisteredApps/ApplicationsListBlade, then click `New registration`.
|
|
2. Enter a name for your app, choose account type `Accounts in any organizational directory (Any Azure AD directory - Multitenant) and personal Microsoft accounts (e.g. Skype, Xbox)`, select `Web` in `Redirect URI` Enter `http://localhost:53682/` and click Register. Copy and keep the `Application (client) ID` under the app name for later use.
|
|
3. Under `manage` select `Certificates & secrets`, click `New client secret`. Copy and keep that secret for later use.
|
|
4. Under `manage` select `API permissions`, click `Add a permission` and select `Microsoft Graph` then select `delegated permissions`.
|
|
5. Search and select the following permissions: `Files.Read`, `Files.ReadWrite`, `Files.Read.All`, `Files.ReadWrite.All`, `offline_access`, `User.Read`. Once selected click `Add permissions` at the bottom.
|
|
|
|
Now the application is complete. Run `rclone config` to create or edit a OneDrive remote.
|
|
Supply the app ID and password as Client ID and Secret, respectively. rclone will walk you through the remaining steps.
|
|
|
|
### Modification time and hashes ###
|
|
|
|
OneDrive allows modification times to be set on objects accurate to 1
|
|
second. These will be used to detect whether objects need syncing or
|
|
not.
|
|
|
|
OneDrive personal supports SHA1 type hashes. OneDrive for business and
|
|
Sharepoint Server support
|
|
[QuickXorHash](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/onedrive/developer/code-snippets/quickxorhash).
|
|
|
|
For all types of OneDrive you can use the `--checksum` flag.
|
|
|
|
### Restricted filename characters ###
|
|
|
|
In addition to the [default restricted characters set](/overview/#restricted-characters)
|
|
the following characters are also replaced:
|
|
|
|
| Character | Value | Replacement |
|
|
| --------- |:-----:|:-----------:|
|
|
| " | 0x22 | " |
|
|
| * | 0x2A | * |
|
|
| : | 0x3A | : |
|
|
| < | 0x3C | < |
|
|
| > | 0x3E | > |
|
|
| ? | 0x3F | ? |
|
|
| \ | 0x5C | \ |
|
|
| \| | 0x7C | | |
|
|
| # | 0x23 | # |
|
|
| % | 0x25 | % |
|
|
|
|
File names can also not end with the following characters.
|
|
These only get replaced if they are last character in the name:
|
|
|
|
| Character | Value | Replacement |
|
|
| --------- |:-----:|:-----------:|
|
|
| SP | 0x20 | ␠ |
|
|
| . | 0x2E | . |
|
|
|
|
File names can also not begin with the following characters.
|
|
These only get replaced if they are first character in the name:
|
|
|
|
| Character | Value | Replacement |
|
|
| --------- |:-----:|:-----------:|
|
|
| SP | 0x20 | ␠ |
|
|
| ~ | 0x7E | ~ |
|
|
|
|
Invalid UTF-8 bytes will also be [replaced](/overview/#invalid-utf8),
|
|
as they can't be used in JSON strings.
|
|
|
|
### Deleting files ###
|
|
|
|
Any files you delete with rclone will end up in the trash. Microsoft
|
|
doesn't provide an API to permanently delete files, nor to empty the
|
|
trash, so you will have to do that with one of Microsoft's apps or via
|
|
the OneDrive website.

#### --onedrive-expose-onenote-files
|
|
|
|
Set to make OneNote files show up in directory listings.
|
|
|
|
By default rclone will hide OneNote files in directory listings because
|
|
operations like "Open" and "Update" won't work on them. But this
|
|
behaviour may also prevent you from deleting them. If you want to
|
|
delete OneNote files or otherwise want them to show up in directory
|
|
listing, set this option.
|
|
|
|
- Config: expose_onenote_files

|
|
### Limitations ###
|
|
|
|
#### Naming ####
|
|
|
|
Note that OneDrive is case insensitive so you can't have a
|
|
file called "Hello.doc" and one called "hello.doc".
|
|
|
|
There are quite a few characters that can't be in OneDrive file
|
|
names. These can't occur on Windows platforms, but on non-Windows
|
|
platforms they are common. Rclone will map these names to and from an
|
|
identical looking unicode equivalent. For example if a file has a `?`
|
|
in it will be mapped to `?` instead.
|
|
|
|
#### File sizes ####
|
|
|
|
The largest allowed file sizes are 15GB for OneDrive for Business and 100GB for OneDrive Personal (Updated 19 May 2020).

|
|
|
|
#### Path length ####
|
|
|
|
The entire path, including the file name, must contain fewer than 400 characters for OneDrive, OneDrive for Business and SharePoint Online. If you are encrypting file and folder names with rclone, you may want to pay attention to this limitation because the encrypted names are typically longer than the original ones.
|
|
|
|
#### Number of files ####
|
|
|
|
OneDrive seems to be OK with at least 50,000 files in a folder, but at
|
|
100,000 rclone will get errors listing the directory like `couldn’t
|
|
list files: UnknownError:`. See
|
|
[#2707](https://github.com/rclone/rclone/issues/2707) for more info.
|
|
|
|
An official document about the limitations for different types of OneDrive can be found [here](https://support.office.com/en-us/article/invalid-file-names-and-file-types-in-onedrive-onedrive-for-business-and-sharepoint-64883a5d-228e-48f5-b3d2-eb39e07630fa).
|
|
|
|
### Versioning issue ###
|
|
|
|
Every change in OneDrive causes the service to create a new version.
|
|
This counts against a users quota.
|
|
For example changing the modification time of a file creates a second
|
|
version, so the file is using twice the space.
|
|
|
|
The `copy` is the only rclone command affected by this as we copy
|
|
the file and then afterwards set the modification time to match the
|
|
source file.
|
|
|
|
**Note**: Starting October 2018, users will no longer be able to disable versioning by default. This is because Microsoft has brought an [update](https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Microsoft-OneDrive-Blog/New-Updates-to-OneDrive-and-SharePoint-Team-Site-Versioning/ba-p/204390) to the mechanism. To change this new default setting, a PowerShell command is required to be run by a SharePoint admin. If you are an admin, you can run these commands in PowerShell to change that setting:
|
|
|
|
1. `Install-Module -Name Microsoft.Online.SharePoint.PowerShell` (in case you haven't installed this already)
|
|
1. `Import-Module Microsoft.Online.SharePoint.PowerShell -DisableNameChecking`
|
|
1. `Connect-SPOService -Url https://YOURSITE-admin.sharepoint.com -Credential YOU@YOURSITE.COM` (replacing `YOURSITE`, `YOU`, `YOURSITE.COM` with the actual values; this will prompt for your credentials)
|
|
1. `Set-SPOTenant -EnableMinimumVersionRequirement $False`
|
|
1. `Disconnect-SPOService` (to disconnect from the server)
|
|
|
|
*Below are the steps for normal users to disable versioning. If you don't see the "No Versioning" option, make sure the above requirements are met.*
|
|
|
|
User [Weropol](https://github.com/Weropol) has found a method to disable
|
|
versioning on OneDrive
|
|
|
|
1. Open the settings menu by clicking on the gear symbol at the top of the OneDrive Business page.
|
|
2. Click Site settings.
|
|
3. Once on the Site settings page, navigate to Site Administration > Site libraries and lists.
|
|
4. Click Customize "Documents".
|
|
5. Click General Settings > Versioning Settings.
|
|
6. Under Document Version History select the option No versioning.
|
|
Note: This will disable the creation of new file versions, but will not remove any previous versions. Your documents are safe.
|
|
7. Apply the changes by clicking OK.
|
|
8. Use rclone to upload or modify files. (I also use the --no-update-modtime flag)
|
|
9. Restore the versioning settings after using rclone. (Optional)
|
|
|
|
### Troubleshooting ###
|
|
|
|
#### Unexpected file size/hash differences on Sharepoint ####
|
|
|
|
It is a
|
|
[known](https://github.com/OneDrive/onedrive-api-docs/issues/935#issuecomment-441741631)
|
|
issue that Sharepoint (not OneDrive or OneDrive for Business) silently modifies
|
|
uploaded files, mainly Office files (.docx, .xlsx, etc.), causing file size and
|
|
hash checks to fail. To use rclone with such affected files on Sharepoint, you
|
|
may disable these checks with the following command line arguments:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
--ignore-checksum --ignore-size
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Replacing/deleting existing files on Sharepoint gets "item not found" ####
|
|
|
|
It is a [known](https://github.com/OneDrive/onedrive-api-docs/issues/1068) issue
|
|
that Sharepoint (not OneDrive or OneDrive for Business) may return "item not
|
|
found" errors when users try to replace or delete uploaded files; this seems to
|
|
mainly affect Office files (.docx, .xlsx, etc.). As a workaround, you may use
|
|
the `--backup-dir <BACKUP_DIR>` command line argument so rclone moves the
|
|
files to be replaced/deleted into a given backup directory (instead of directly
|
|
replacing/deleting them). For example, to instruct rclone to move the files into
|
|
the directory `rclone-backup-dir` on backend `mysharepoint`, you may use:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
--backup-dir mysharepoint:rclone-backup-dir
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### access\_denied (AADSTS65005) ####
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Error: access_denied
|
|
Code: AADSTS65005
|
|
Description: Using application 'rclone' is currently not supported for your organization [YOUR_ORGANIZATION] because it is in an unmanaged state. An administrator needs to claim ownership of the company by DNS validation of [YOUR_ORGANIZATION] before the application rclone can be provisioned.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This means that rclone can't use the OneDrive for Business API with your account. You can't do much about it, maybe write an email to your admins.
|
|
|
|
However, there are other ways to interact with your OneDrive account. Have a look at the webdav backend: https://rclone.org/webdav/#sharepoint
|
|
|
|
#### invalid\_grant (AADSTS50076) ####
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Error: invalid_grant
|
|
Code: AADSTS50076
|
|
Description: Due to a configuration change made by your administrator, or because you moved to a new location, you must use multi-factor authentication to access '...'.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you see the error above after enabling multi-factor authentication for your account, you can fix it by refreshing your OAuth refresh token. To do that, run `rclone config`, and choose to edit your OneDrive backend. Then, you don't need to actually make any changes until you reach this question: `Already have a token - refresh?`. For this question, answer `y` and go through the process to refresh your token, just like the first time the backend is configured. After this, rclone should work again for this backend.
