First of all, I apologize if someone can't understand something, I'm using the Google translator. I'm brazilian.
I learned how to use rclone to copy files from Gdrive to Gdrive. However, I would like to know if there are any commands to copy files from public Gdrive links to my own Gdrive.
But I don't know if there is any command to copy public files via a link.
Example: I want to copy this file β to my drive, using Rclone. But I don't know if there is any command for rclone to copy the file using a link.
I read a few things here, but I don't quite understand if this is possible.
There is a website that I can do this for. However, I need to connect my google account to it, to give access to the rclone that is in it. But I would like to do this via command, straight from my computer. So I don't need to connect my account to a website that I don't know.
Taking advantage, I would like to know if there is the possibility to copy files shared with me using Rclone. I have some public files that are shared with me, but I have no idea if there is a possibility to copy them using rclone.
It copies the drive file with ID given to the path (an rclone path which
will be passed internally to rclone copyto). The ID and path pairs can be
repeated.
The path should end with a / to indicate copy the file as named to
this directory. If it doesn't end with a / then the last path
component will be used as the file name.
If the destination is a drive backend then server-side copying will be
attempted if possible.
Use the -i flag to see what would be copied before copying.
Any command I try to use, to copy, returns this message to me: "Failed to backend: didn't find section in config file"
I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Commands used:
Where is "123456" I put the folder ID to where I want to copy the files from the folder with ID1. I have no idea if this is so. I tried several things, but always the same result.
"rclone -i backend copyid drive: ID 1tLBl3rO-kvtDPPXBGomhU2DBGDkLouuc ID2 123456"
"rclone -i backend copyid drive: ID 1tLBl3rO-kvtDPPXBGomhU2DBGDkLouuc /path/to/dir/drive/"
I did according to what I understood. Sorry if I did something wrong, Iβm new to this business, and I donβt understand anything about code. I've been watching tutorials on the internet, but nothing satisfactory
I also tried a public folder with several other folders inside. But without success..
i think that you need to replace drive: with the name of a remote from the rclone config file. rclone listremotes will list all the remotes in the config flie.
