Rclone with Filen cloud

[EmilioL]

Hi I will first ask has anyone had success installing Rclone with Filen cloud storage ? and how did you do it, I think its pretty confusing but I will give it a try again. Yesterday I tried with Proton but I gave up on Proton but suddenly Proton drive appeared in my home folder if I add files nothing is syncing so basically nothing there. Then I tried with Filen cloud but I get equally confused I am a newbie bare over with me. When I used Rclone ad then had to type webdac and so on, it ask me in the terminal for filens api credentials and I wrote to filen support and they gave me their documentation. But to be honest you might ask me how to talk with a Alien from a distant galaxy because I do not know where and what to look at lol. I use Endeavour OS and I would like to sync and backup on filen so my question is should I go through all the pain or just say alright its to complex and might not work and I will just buy a external SSD drive ? I rather someone says at it is, I hope someone could be so kind to help me out

I got the Filen client working with rclone as a webdav backend, but the transfer speed keeps dropping with no reason.
I followed these steps on a windows machine:

1. Install Filen Client and login successfully to the cloud
2. Activate Mounts -> Webdav
3. Use the Filen webdav settings for the rclone config
   
   

rclone config
New remote
name>filen-webdav
Storage> webdav
url> http://127.0.0.1:1900
vendor> other
user> admin
password>$Password from Filen GUI
rclone copy -Pvc --dry-run /home/$USER filen-webdav:$USER

I hope this small tutorial helps.
