# {{< icon "fas fa-dove" >}} SugarSync
|
|
|
|
[SugarSync](https://sugarsync.com) is a cloud service that enables
|
|
active synchronization of files across computers and other devices for
|
|
file backup, access, syncing, and sharing.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
The initial setup for SugarSync involves getting a token from SugarSync which you
|
|
can do with rclone. `rclone config` walks you through it.
|
|
|
|
Here is an example of how to make a remote called `remote`. First run:
|
|
|
|
rclone config
|
|
|
|
This will guide you through an interactive setup process:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
No remotes found, make a new one?
|
|
n) New remote
|
|
s) Set configuration password
|
|
q) Quit config
|
|
n/s/q> n
|
|
name> remote
|
|
Type of storage to configure.
|
|
Enter a string value. Press Enter for the default ("").
|
|
Choose a number from below, or type in your own value
|
|

|
|
XX / Sugarsync
|
|
\ "sugarsync"

|
|
Storage> sugarsync
|
|
** See help for sugarsync backend at: https://rclone.org/sugarsync/ **
|
|
|
|
Sugarsync App ID.
|
|
Leave blank to use rclone's.
|
|
Enter a string value. Press Enter for the default ("").
|
|
app_id>
|
|
Sugarsync Access Key ID.
|
|
Leave blank to use rclone's.
|
|
Enter a string value. Press Enter for the default ("").
|
|
access_key_id>
|
|
Sugarsync Private Access Key
|
|
Leave blank to use rclone's.
|
|
Enter a string value. Press Enter for the default ("").
|
|
private_access_key>
|
|
Permanently delete files if true
|
|
otherwise put them in the deleted files.
|
|
Enter a boolean value (true or false). Press Enter for the default ("false").
|
|
hard_delete>
|
|
Edit advanced config? (y/n)
|
|
y) Yes
|
|
n) No (default)
|
|
y/n> n
|
|
Remote config
|
|
Username (email address)> nick@craig-wood.com
|
|
Your Sugarsync password is only required during setup and will not be stored.
|
|
password:
|
|
--------------------
|
|
[remote]
|
|
type = sugarsync
|
|
refresh_token = https://api.sugarsync.com/app-authorization/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
|
|
--------------------
|
|
y) Yes this is OK (default)
|
|
e) Edit this remote
|
|
d) Delete this remote
|
|
y/e/d> y
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that the config asks for your email and password but doesn't
|
|
store them, it only uses them to get the initial token.
|
|
|
|
Once configured you can then use `rclone` like this,
|
|
|
|
List directories (sync folders) in top level of your SugarSync
|
|
|
|
rclone lsd remote:
|
|
|
|
List all the files in your SugarSync folder "Test"
|
|
|
|
rclone ls remote:Test
|
|
|
|
To copy a local directory to an SugarSync folder called backup
|
|
|
|
rclone copy /home/source remote:backup
|
|
|
|
Paths are specified as `remote:path`
|
|
|
|
Paths may be as deep as required, e.g. `remote:directory/subdirectory`.
|
|
|
|
**NB** you can't create files in the top level folder you have to
|
|
create a folder, which rclone will create as a "Sync Folder" with
|
|
SugarSync.
|
|
|
|
### Modified time and hashes
|
|
|
|
SugarSync does not support modification times or hashes, therefore
|
|
syncing will default to `--size-only` checking. Note that using
|
|
`--update` will work as rclone can read the time files were uploaded.
|
|
|
|
### Restricted filename characters
|
|
|
|
SugarSync replaces the [default restricted characters set](/overview/#restricted-characters)
|
|
except for DEL.
|
|
|
|
Invalid UTF-8 bytes will also be [replaced](/overview/#invalid-utf8),
|
|
as they can't be used in XML strings.
|
|
|
|
### Deleting files
|
|
|
|
Deleted files will be moved to the "Deleted items" folder by default.
|
|
|
|
However you can supply the flag `--sugarsync-hard-delete` or set the
|
|
config parameter `hard_delete = true` if you would like files to be
|
|
deleted straight away.

## Limitations
|
|
|
|
`rclone about` is not supported by the SugarSync backend. Backends without
|
|
this capability cannot determine free space for an rclone mount or
|
|
use policy `mfs` (most free space) as a member of an rclone union
|
|
remote.
|
|
|
|
See [List of backends that do not support rclone about](https://rclone.org/overview/#optional-features) and [rclone about](https://rclone.org/commands/rclone_about/)
