just wanted to verify, iCloud doesn't support rclone yet? not seeing them on the storage system list, and I need to migrate a user from iCloud.

if you mean Apple iCloud then indeed it is not supported.

It is not "normal" cloud storage you can access using 3rd party tools but macOS/iOS integrated cloud solution. There is not publicly available API at the moment.

Despite the fact that I am a macOS and iPhone user, this is why I don't use iCloud for my data.

As far as I know, the only way to really migrate is to run rclone on a mac signed in to iCloud Drive and treat it as local.

To be clear, this is an Apple-based limitation. They have not released a public API that rclone would need.
