Jottacloud destination configuration

To configure the Jottacloud destination you need to pick a unique folder name for the backups, and then authorize Duplicati to work on your behalf. Simply click the "AuthID" link in the text field and the authentication process will start and fill out the "AuthID" when you are done.

URL format for Commandline

To use the Jottacloud storage destination, you can use the following URL format:

jottacloud://<folder>/<subfolder>
  ?authid=<authid>

To use Jottacloud you must first obtain an AuthID by using a Duplicati service to log in to Jottacloud and approve the access. See the page on the OAuth Server for different ways to obtain an AuthID.

Device and mount point

Within Jottacloud, each machine registered is a device that can be used for storage, and within each device you an choose the mount point. By default, Duplicati will use the special device Jotta and the mount point Archive.

If you need to store data on another device, you can use the options --jottacloud-device and --jottacloud-mountpoint to set the device and mount point. If you only set the device, the mount point will be set to Duplicati.

Performance tuning

If you need to tune the performance and resource usage to match your specific setup, you can adjust the two parameters:

  • --jottacloud-threads: The number of threads used to fetch chunks with

  • --jottacloud-chunksize: The size of chunks to download with each thread
