# rclone config encryption set
|
|
|
|
Set or change the config file encryption password
|
|
|
|
## Synopsis
|
|
|
|
This command sets or changes the config file encryption password.
|
|
|
|
If there was no config password set then it sets a new one, otherwise
|
|
it changes the existing config password.
|
|
|
|
Note that if you are changing an encryption password using
|
|
`--password-command` then this will be called once to decrypt the
|
|
config using the old password and then again to read the new
|
|
password to re-encrypt the config.
|
|
|
|
When `--password-command` is called to change the password then the
|
|
environment variable `RCLONE_PASSWORD_CHANGE=1` will be set. So if
|
|
changing passwords programatically you can use the environment
|
|
variable to distinguish which password you must supply.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively you can remove the password first (with `rclone config
|
|
encryption remove`), then set it again with this command which may be
|
|
easier if you don't mind the unecrypted config file being on the disk
|
|
briefly.
