Hi all,

I just found out that Mediafire has an API  
Can it be added to Kopia?  
[https://www.mediafire.com/developers/core\_api/](https://www.mediafire.com/developers/core_api/)

Thanks

Hi @kwag

It would be better to add the backend to rclone as kopia can use rclone to pull and push data via rclone.

Rclone already has an open issue here [https://github.com/ncw/rclone/issues/1465](https://github.com/ncw/rclone/issues/1465)

Yes, indeed, that would work.  
But I see this as a “hack” and another dependency app “in the way”.  
And if anything breaks in rclone’s code, then Kopia break.  
It’s fine to use rclone as a proxy, in the mean time.  
But it would be better for Kopia to have native support.
