This works fine! Using the graph API I can get all groups and then all drives from each group. With the drive IDs my script is creating configs and then running rclone copy --config .... This way I don't need to worry about adding new groups to the backup system manually.

Thanks for sharing this! I'm currently building a backup system based on this article and it works great. The only downside is, that appears to be necessary to add a new remote for every Sharepoint site you want to backup. Is there a way to download the complete Sharepoint files with only one rclone remote?

Thank you @dorthrithil for your comment.
Rclone by default is saving its config in user directory, but theoretically there is nothing against running rclone with different config files and different settings/credentials.

Simple bash script to run rclone with config 1 and after that config 2 etc. shall work.

See: rclone.org/commands/rclone_config

Command rclone config file show where config file is saved (default "$HOME/.config/rclone/rclone.conf").

Adding --config string flag and pointing to specific file shall allow you to create multiple configs that can than be run with them.

This shall help you give idea and figure out.

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately this solves only half of my problem as I still need to create a config file for every site I want to sync. So if someone creates a new Sharepoint site in my organization I need to update my script. Currently I'm trying to write a script using the graph API that does some auto discovering of drives in the organization. Probably I can combine that with the config approach to be able to download all the organizations sites.

"this is why we will need to do this with a graphic environment on Raspberry OS."

Thats not true, at least now. I dont know how old your version is, though.

It's not old. I set new environment about month ago and I still need graphic environment to get everything in order to run. If you managed to get this without it, that's great. For my purpose it's needed.
