rclone about

Get quota information from the remote.

Synopsis

Prints quota information about a remote to standard output. The output is typically used, free, quota and trash contents.

E.g. Typical output from rclone about remote: is:

  1. Total: 17 GiB
  2. Used: 7.444 GiB
  3. Free: 1.315 GiB
  4. Trashed: 100.000 MiB
  5. Other: 8.241 GiB

Where the fields are:

  • Total: Total size available.
  • Used: Total size used.
  • Free: Total space available to this user.
  • Trashed: Total space used by trash.
  • Other: Total amount in other storage (e.g. Gmail, Google Photos).
  • Objects: Total number of objects in the storage.

All sizes are in number of bytes.

Applying a --full flag to the command prints the bytes in full, e.g.

  1. Total: 18253611008
  2. Used: 7993453766
  3. Free: 1411001220
  4. Trashed: 104857602
  5. Other: 8849156022

A --json flag generates conveniently machine-readable output, e.g.

  1. {
  2. "total": 18253611008,
  3. "used": 7993453766,
  4. "trashed": 104857602,
  5. "other": 8849156022,
  6. "free": 1411001220
  7. }

Not all backends print all fields. Information is not included if it is not provided by a backend. Where the value is unlimited it is omitted.

Some backends does not support the rclone about command at all, see complete list in documentation.
