Transfer certain files in a directory

Help and Support
1

Hi everyone. I’m trying to copy certain files in a directory from Google drive to my hard drive with filters but I can’t seem to get it to work.

My files are labeled [Group] Date #Index Subject.ext. I’d like to transfer all the #2s out to my hard drive. I’ve been trying to do so with rclone --include '#2' copy 'remote:path/where/the/files/are' 'localpath' but it’s not working.

I’d like to add that the filenames are mostly in Japanese. Would that affect anything?

Thank you in advance!

You need to add wildcard as well eg --include '#2*'

Thank you so much! Just to add, I added wildcard before as well --include '*#2*'. Thank you!
