<i class="fa fa-globe"></i> WebDAV
-----------------------------------------
Paths are specified as `remote:path`
Paths may be as deep as required, eg `remote:directory/subdirectory`.
To configure the WebDAV remote you will need to have a URL for it, and
a username and password. If you know what kind of system you are
connecting to then rclone can enable extra features.
Here is an example of how to make a remote called `remote`. First run:
rclone config
This will guide you through an interactive setup process:
```
No remotes found - make a new one
n) New remote
s) Set configuration password
q) Quit config
n/s/q> n
name> remote

Remote config
--------------------
[remote]
url = https://example.com/remote.php/webdav/
vendor = nextcloud
user = user
pass = *** ENCRYPTED ***
--------------------
y) Yes this is OK
e) Edit this remote
d) Delete this remote
y/e/d> y
```
Once configured you can then use `rclone` like this,
List directories in top level of your WebDAV
rclone lsd remote:
List all the files in your WebDAV
rclone ls remote:
To copy a local directory to an WebDAV directory called backup
rclone copy /home/source remote:backup
### Modified time and hashes ###
Plain WebDAV does not support modified times. However when used with
Owncloud or Nextcloud rclone will support modified times.
Hashes are not supported.
### Owncloud ###
Click on the settings cog in the bottom right of the page and this
will show the WebDAV URL that rclone needs in the config step. It
will look something like `https://example.com/remote.php/webdav/`.
Owncloud supports modified times using the `X-OC-Mtime` header.
### Nextcloud ###
This is configured in an identical way to Owncloud. Note that
Nextcloud does not support streaming of files (`rcat`) whereas
Owncloud does. This [may be
fixed](https://github.com/nextcloud/nextcloud-snap/issues/365) in the
future.
## Put.io ##
put.io can be accessed in a read only way using webdav.
Configure the `url` as `https://webdav.put.io` and use your normal
account username and password for `user` and `pass`. Set the `vendor`
to `other`.
Your config file should end up looking like this:
```
[putio]
type = webdav
url = https://webdav.put.io
vendor = other
user = YourUserName
pass = encryptedpassword
```
If you are using `put.io` with `rclone mount` then use the
`--read-only` flag to signal to the OS that it can't write to the
mount.
