Any kind of API access would be helpful. In my opinion, the lack of a published API is a problem with MultCloud. For example, my particular use case is transferring 1TB of OneDrive videos and pictures to Google Photos. I've learned the ins and outs of the restrictions on either one of these and it just comes down to being a manual process. Sometimes, the web stack is slow and clunky. However, if I had the ability to use an API where I could script the creation of tasks that would source videos and/pictures using regex expressions, I'd be able to automate the transfer process, within reason. Set up the scripts, let them run and check on the results from time to time. Set it and forget it. Specifically, I could use the API to use a regex to query for 200 videos/pictures from a particular OneDrive folder structure (right now, I have folders that have tens of thousands of objects directly in them and sometimes MultCloud will not complete enumerating them and times out so I can't build a task from that folder). 200 is the limit that building the task has given me. Hence, why I use 200 as the number. Continuing on, now that I would've had my source 200 videos/pictures, use the API to pick the target Google Photos album and submit the task. In theory, if I want to use this for a OneDrive folder that has 10,000 videos/photos in it which I want to transfer, I could use the API to create 50 tasks (50x200=10,000) and simply continue creating more tasks for the other folders in OneDrive. Yes, I realize each cloud provider has their limitations but even if I have access to script it out, it becomes a lather, rinse and repeat until I am done.
@jpflick We fully understand the concerns and requests. The suggestion/request has been forwarded to the relevant department. They will evaluate the requests and check if it is possible and necessary to achieve it.
