I have copied config file from my workstation to my work laptop.
I have setup google cloud storage and crypt which uses the gcloud remote.
What I am trying to do is sync files from my workstation to laptop and vice versa but it seems rclone on laptop cannot see files made on workstation and vice versa.

The same happens when I try to get files from workstation to laptop.
From what I found trying to resolve this problem I gather that copy&paste config file should be enough to make this work but it's not in this case.
hello and welcome to the forum,
when you posted, you should have been asked for information, is there a reason you did not suppy it?
that lack of information you supplied makes it hard for us to help you......
that log file, from which device is it from - workstation or laptop?
on whichever computer you used, run this, post the command and output rclone config listremotes
also, please take note of this, https://rclone.org/commands/rclone_sync/ Important : Since this can cause data loss, test first with the --dry-run flag to see exactly what would be copied and deleted.
I did run it with --dry-run first. I can see files I have pushed from workstation to remote when using rclone from workstation but not from laptop and vice versa.
Yes, I know that. The rclone sync remote:dir_from_laptop local_dir/ line was just an example. If I used remote: instead of the actual name of the remote I wouldn't be able to push any files, would I?

but your rclone sync command is rclone sync backup:work work
there is no folder named backup:work
and thus the error source directory: directory not found
