The quote marks in this case make no difference since the name contains no spaces, but it doesn't hurt to include them. Once you have rclone on your main computer, run rclone authorize "dropbox" on it (not on the Pi!), replacing dropbox with the remote name you used in the previous step. A Windows binary file can be found on rclone's download page and should work in a similar way. If your distribution is not listed then choose Compile from Source. Installing rclone on a different machine is beyond the scope of this guide, but on Mac or Linux, you should be able to use the same command as above. Install the appropriate package if you want to use Dropbox on your Linux Desktop. This is because the authorization is based on oAuth2, a protocol that needs to "talk back" to Dropbox using an open web browser (something a headless Raspberry Pi doesn't have). If your Pi is running headless, however, you will need to install rclone on your main desktop machine in order to authorize Dropbox and not use auto config.

When asked for client_id and client_secret, leave those fields blanks and hit the Enter key instead, as the advanced configuration isn't required.Īt this point, if your Pi has a screen and you're using the graphical interface, you can let it use the auto configuration method to authorize rclone and provide it with access to your Dropbox account.
