powershell script to copy files to webdav with Rclone

Question

Hi,
I am not having that much knowledge in PowerShell. I have to transfer some backup files from My server to WebDAV through rclone.searched and got some documents regarding rclone configuration

https://rclone.org/webdav/

Initialy I have executed the the following script.

Invoke-Expression ((Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://gist.githubusercontent.com/justusiv/1ff2ad273cea3e33ca4acc5cab24c8e0/raw").content)
$silent = mkdir c:\rclone -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
install-rclone -location c:\rclone

Please any one guide me , how to do PowerShell script to achieve my requirement.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

According to your document, you have to run config to add a remote after installing. Add that line to your current installation script

Invoke-Expression ((Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://gist.githubusercontent.com/justusiv/1ff2ad273cea3e33ca4acc5cab24c8e0/raw").content)  
$silent = mkdir c:\rclone -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue  
install-rclone -location c:\rclone  
c:\rclone\rclone.exe config  

Once the configuration is done, to copy the local directory (e.g., c:\test) to an WebDAV directory called backup, just run

c:\rclone\rclone.exe copy c:\test remote:backup
