Configuration
You need to configure rclone for each storage system that you want to transfer data to/from. Please see detailed instructions at https://rclone.org/docs/. The following are instructions for connecting to Google Drive and Dropbox . This requires an access to a browser to authenticate to dropbox. Carry out the configuration steps in the CentOS 8 Desktop app on Open OnDemand or create a SSH tunnel using instructions from Jupyter Notebooks.
