This change adds support for metadata on OneDrive. Metadata (including
permissions) is supported for both files and directories.
OneDrive supports System Metadata (not User Metadata, as of this writing.) Much
of the metadata is read-only, and there are some differences between OneDrive
Personal and Business (see table in OneDrive backend docs for details).
Permissions are also supported, if --onedrive-metadata-permissions is set. The
accepted values for --onedrive-metadata-permissions are read, write, read,write, and
off (the default). write supports adding new permissions, updating the "role" of
existing permissions, and removing permissions. Updating and removing require
the Permission ID to be known, so it is recommended to use read,write instead of
write if you wish to update/remove permissions.
Permissions are read/written in JSON format using the same schema as the
OneDrive API, which differs slightly between OneDrive Personal and Business.
(See OneDrive backend docs for examples.)
To write permissions, pass in a "permissions" metadata key using this same
format. The --metadata-mapper tool can be very helpful for this.
When adding permissions, an email address can be provided in the User.ID or
DisplayName properties of grantedTo or grantedToIdentities. Alternatively, an
ObjectID can be provided in User.ID. At least one valid recipient must be
provided in order to add a permission for a user. Creating a Public Link is also
supported, if Link.Scope is set to "anonymous".
Note that adding a permission can fail if a conflicting permission already
exists for the file/folder.
To update an existing permission, include both the Permission ID and the new
roles to be assigned. roles is the only property that can be changed.
To remove permissions, pass in a blob containing only the permissions you wish
to keep (which can be empty, to remove all.)
Note that both reading and writing permissions requires extra API calls, so if
you don't need to read or write permissions it is recommended to omit --onedrive-
metadata-permissions.
Metadata and permissions are supported for Folders (directories) as well as
Files. Note that setting the mtime or btime on a Folder requires one extra API
call on OneDrive Business only.
OneDrive does not currently support User Metadata. When writing metadata, only
writeable system properties will be written -- any read-only or unrecognized keys
passed in will be ignored.
TIP: to see the metadata and permissions for any file or folder, run:
rclone lsjson remote:path --stat -M --onedrive-metadata-permissions read
See the OneDrive backend docs for a table of all the supported metadata
properties.
Before this change ListR was unconditionally enabled on onedrive.
This caused performance problems for some uses, so now the
--onedrive-delta flag has to be supplied.
Fixes#7362
Before this change the hash used for Onedrive Personal was SHA1. From
July 2023 Microsoft is phasing out SHA1 hashes in favour of
QuickXorHash in Onedrive Personal. Onedrive Business and Sharepoint
remain using QuickXorHash as before.
This choice can be changed using the --onedrive-hash-type flag (and
config option) so that SHA1 can be selected while it is still
available in the transition period.

The config question "Use auto config?" confused many users and lead to
recurring forum posts from users that were unaware that they were using
a remote or headless machine.
This commit makes the question and possible options more descriptive
and precise.
This commit also adds references to the guide on remote setup in the
documentation of backends using oauth as primary authentication.
By default, rclone always requests read and write permissions. No matter what settings you configure in the AAD application. This option allows to explicitly request readonly permissions
Migrated read only option to access scope option and set disable_site_permission option to hidden.
Includes adding support for additional size input suffix Mi and MiB, treated equivalent to M.
Extends binary suffix output with letter i, e.g. Ki and Mi.
Centralizes creation of bit/byte unit strings.
I followed this guide and successfully set up OneDrive on rclone, but there is a detail which stumped me for some time.
You may not copy and paste `http://localhost:53682/` from this document to Microsoft's website, you must type it, otherwise it is not recognized as a valid address. I edited the line with this information.
Removed comma from the end of the Azure AD Applications List Blade URL since it was not resolving and customers were opening up support tickets with the Microsoft Azure AD team.
