I think that sounds like a useful change.
I propose changing the section to this - what do you think?
Getting your own Client ID and Key
You can use your own Client ID if the default (client_id
left blank)
one doesn't work for you or you see lots of throttling. The default
Client ID and Key is shared by all rclone users when performing
requests.
If you are having problems with them (E.g., seeing a lot of throttling), you can get your own
Client ID and Key by following the steps below:
- Open https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_RegisteredApps/ApplicationsListBlade, then click
New registration
. - Enter a name for your app, choose account type
Any Azure AD directory - Multitenant
, selectWeb
inRedirect URI
Enterhttp://localhost:53682/
and click Register. Copy and keep theApplication (client) ID
under the app name for later use. - Under
manage
selectCertificates & secrets
, clickNew client secret
. Copy and keep that secret for later use. - Under
manage
selectAPI permissions
, clickAdd a permission
and selectMicrosoft Graph
then selectdelegated permissions
. - Search and select the follwing permssions:
Files.Read
,Files.ReadWrite
,Files.Read.All
,Files.ReadWrite.All
,offline_access
,User.Read
. Once selected clickAdd permissions
at the bottom.
Now the application is complete. Run rclone config
to create or edit a OneDrive remote.
Supply the app ID and password as Client ID and Secret, respectively. rclone will walk you through the remaining steps.
