# rclone about
Get quota information from the remote.
## Synopsis
`rclone about` prints quota information about a remote to standard
output. The output is typically used, free, quota and trash contents.
E.g. Typical output from `rclone about remote:` is:
Total: 17 GiB
Used: 7.444 GiB
Free: 1.315 GiB
Trashed: 100.000 MiB
Other: 8.241 GiB
Where the fields are:
* Total: Total size available.
* Used: Total size used.
* Free: Total space available to this user.
* Trashed: Total space used by trash.
* Other: Total amount in other storage (e.g. Gmail, Google Photos).
* Objects: Total number of objects in the storage.
All sizes are in number of bytes.
Applying a `--full` flag to the command prints the bytes in full, e.g.
Total: 18253611008
Used: 7993453766
Free: 1411001220
Trashed: 104857602
Other: 8849156022
A `--json` flag generates conveniently computer readable output, e.g.
{
"total": 18253611008,
"used": 7993453766,
"trashed": 104857602,
"other": 8849156022,
"free": 1411001220
}
Not all backends print all fields. Information is not included if it is not
provided by a backend. Where the value is unlimited it is omitted.
Some backends does not support the `rclone about` command at all,
see complete list in [documentation](https://rclone.org/overview/#optional-features).
