Synchronize kDrive with a VPS using WebDAV

Update 08/13/2026

This guide provides instructions for synchronizing kDrive with a VPS (or vice versa) via the WebDAV protocol, which can be found in the rClone application.

 

✘ UNAVAILABLE with
kSuite Free / kSuite Standard
my kSuite / my kSuite+ (ik.me, etik.com, ikmail.com) 


 

Prerequisites

  • You must have a VPS.
  • Know your kDrive ID (kDrive ID).

 

Synchronize kDrive and VPS via rClone

This process allows you to retrieve files and folders from kDrive in real time and read, create, or modify these files from your VPS, while ensuring that they are synchronized again on the kDrive server. An rClone mount point can be created with a folder on your VPS to allow you to manage these kDrive files.

Refer to the rClone documentation if you are looking for information about the available options:

  1. Example rClone command:
    • rclone mount kdrive:/My_kDrive_Folder_Path /home/ubuntu/Target_Folder_Path --vfs-cache-mode full --vfs-cache-max-age 24h --vfs-cache-max-size 10G --cache-dir /home/ubuntu/rclone/cache --daemon --allow-other --dir-cache-time 1h --log-file /home/ubuntu/rclone/rclone.log --log-level INFO
    • The --daemon attribute in this command allows you to run the synchronization in the background, because without it, this sync will end each time you disconnect from the VPS…
  2. Example rClone configuration file:
    • [kdrive]
      type = webdav
      url = {{URL_3}}
      vendor = other
      user = ***
      pass = ***
    • Server address: https://IDkDrive.connect.kdrive.infomaniak.com (see prerequisites)
    • Username: the email address used to log in to your Infomaniak account
    • Password: create an application password for this specific use.
