Rclone is considered a free tool by their API. So uploading via rclone does NOT count against box.com's API per month limit. We have 6 users on the base unlimited plan, which is 5gb single file limit, and 50,000 API calls. Among our 6 users, in under a month, we have upload 200,000 files ( because of chunker ). When the admin does a "platform activity report", which will display all the API calls, it will show "rclone", and then their is a column labeled "chargeable", all rclone activity is labeled as "NO". If rclone were to use the API, we would of stopped at 50,000 files, or even before that, as rclone uploads 32 or 64 megabyte small chunks as its uploading the bigger 4.9GB chunked file. We have done lots of testing. It seems there are certain tools, WITHIN Box that use the API, like sharing files etc. But, like for me, I have been testing to "stream" linux iso's via rclone's mount, and it works and that does not count towards the API limit either. It has been discussed quite a bit on rclone's forums, but no one really understands what box defines as an API hit. We have concluded, that rclone does *NOT* use the monthly API limit. So most are covered there.

Perfect. That solves all our problems.

DON'T US SYNC. They do not have an open API, and their uploads are capped at 40mbps/sec, thats 4 megabytes per second, panfully slow and would take a very long time to upload any significant amount of data.
