Hello!

I need to download data from a password-protected cloud storage. I do not have a user, it is just a folder protected by a password. The storage contains folders with many files on them and I need to download the whole content. However, whenever I try commands with rclone and get, I manage to download only the HTML code of the cloud storage folder.

Here are the commands I am trying:

./rclone copy remote:https://XXX/XXX local:./ --http-user= --http-pass=xxxx
 wget --user=remote_user --password=xxxx ftp:https://XXX/xxx
 wget --password=xxx -r -np -nH --cut-dirs=1 --reject="index.html*" https://XXX/XXX

Thank you for your help!

Is this bioinformatics related?

What is the nature of the cloud storage system? Your commands allude to FTP.

Yes! I am downloading data for a bioinformatics analysis, so I decided to post it here, I hope it's okay. The cloud storage system is from a university.

We need to know more about the storage system itself though - is it actually an FTP server? Does the University not provide instructions on interfacing with it?

I don't see how this is bioinformatics-related just because the OP needs to access bioinformatics data.

I would say this is one of those edge cases where the forum errs on the side of being helpful rather than obstructive for novices when its a common task that would be encountered in the process of doing informatics.
