### Standard authentication
To configure Jottacloud you will need to generate a personal security token in the Jottacloud web interface.
You will the option to do in your [account security settings](https://www.jottacloud.com/web/secure)
(for whitelabel version you need to find this page in its web interface).
Note that the web interface may refer to this token as a JottaCli token.
The standard authentication method used by the official service (jottacloud.com), as well as
some of the whitelabel services, requires you to generate a single-use personal login token
from the account security settings in the service's web interface. Log in to your account,
go to "Settings" and then "Security", or use the direct link presented to you by rclone when
configuring the remote: <https://www.jottacloud.com/web/secure>. Scroll down to the section
"Personal login token", and click the "Generate" button. Note that if you are using a
whitelabel service you probably can't use the direct link, you need to find the same page in
their dedicated web interface, and also it may be in a different location than described above.
To access your account from multiple instances of rclone, you need to configure each of them
with a separate personal login token. E.g. you create a Jottacloud remote with rclone in one
location, and copy the configuration file to a second location where you also want to run
rclone and access the same remote. Then you need to replace the token for one of them, using
the [config reconnect](https://rclone.org/commands/rclone_config_reconnect/) command, which
requires you to generate a new personal login token and supply as input. If you do not
do this, the token may easily end up being invalidated, resulting in both instances failing
with an error message something along the lines of:
oauth2: cannot fetch token: 400 Bad Request
Response: {"error":"invalid_grant","error_description":"Stale token"}
When this happens, you need to replace the token as described above to be able to use your
remote again.
All personal login tokens you have taken into use will be listed in the web interface under
"My logged in devices", and from the right side of that list you can click the "X" button to
revoke individual tokens.
