Sftp correct path statment for remote dir

Hi all, Trying to rclone sftp to remote & specify a dir, below in ‘.rclone.conf’ not working for the dir path.
Thanks

[ssh]
type = sftp
host = myserver.com
path = /backup
user = fred
port = 22
pass = xxxxxxxxxx

path isn’t a config item for SFTP…

What you can do is set up the sftp without the path then use an alias to save you typing.
