Password as parameter

Help and Support
1

Hi all,

I have encrypted my configuration file, and would like to pass the password as an argument when using rclone.

Example: rclone --config A --password=“ABC” delete ETC

Is this possible?

This would be within an obfuscated file, so I would prefer this approach over the saving the password externally.

Thank you!

You can pass it as an environment variable which is slightly save. RCLONE_CONFIG_PASS is its name - see the config docs for more info.
