How to setup additional options with Internet Archive?

I was wondering if there is a way to add additional options to an operation when using Internet Archive. For example when uploading I want to skip the derive process, with the IA CLI tool I would just add -n, is there something similar that I can use in rclone?

There is not currently.

You'd have to submit a PR for it and/or a feature request if you aren't a developer (I'm not either).

You can set arbitrary HTTP headers on uploads using the --header-upload flag, so I think something like --header-upload "x-archive-queue-derive:0" would work.

You can check the header is being sent using -vv --dump headers. There is a chance this doesn't work for the internetarchive backend - if not we can make it work quite easily.

It works, thank you!
