Error: didn't find section in config file

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

I'm getting an error when I try to copy a local file to Box.

What is your rclone version (output from rclone version)

v1.52.0

Which OS you are using and how many bits (eg Windows 7, 64 bit)

macOS Catalina

Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)

Box

The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)

rclone copy source:/Users/marleneberke/Documents/03_Yale/Projects/001_Mask_RCNN/Simulated_data_and_analysis/May/5.26Version/Merge_them/test.txt dest:YaleBoxTest/Test

The rclone config contents with secrets removed.

rclone config
Current remotes:

Name                 Type
====                 ====
YaleBoxTest          box

Thank you for such a fast reply! It worked! I misunderstood the documentation for rclone copy. Thank you so much!
