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

Google Drive

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

rclone config

The rclone config contents with secrets removed.

[gdrive]
type = drive
scope = drive
client_id = ...
client_secret = ...
token = {"access_token": ...
team_drive = ...
root_folder_id =

The problem comes in if you answer anything other than 1 to this question

Option scope.
Comma separated list of scopes that rclone should use when requesting access from drive.
Choose a number from below, or type in your own value of type string.
Press Enter for the default (1,4).
 1 / Full access all files, excluding Application Data Folder.
   \ (drive)
 2 / Read-only access to file metadata and file contents.
   \ (drive.readonly)
   / Access to files created by rclone only.
 3 | These are visible in the drive website.
   | File authorization is revoked when the user deauthorizes the app.
   \ (drive.file)
   / Allows read and write access to the Application Data folder.
 4 | This is not visible in the drive website.
   \ (drive.appfolder)
   / Allows read-only access to file metadata but
 5 | does not allow any access to read or download file content.
   \ (drive.metadata.readonly)
scope> 1

Eg. 1,4 results in an OAuth error as in the original post.

So enter 1 here if you want it to work!

If you make your own client ID I expect it will work.

I think I have to re-validate the rclone built in client ID which involves jumping through 16 flaming hoops of fire on a unicycle while whistling Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D minor and juggling five knives.

I expect I will get round to this eventually, but you can probably tell it isn't my most favorite job!
