rclone listremotes

List all the remotes in the config file and defined in environment variables.

Synopsis

Lists all the available remotes from the config file, or the remotes matching an optional filter.

Prints the result in human-readable format by default, and as a simple list of remote names, or if used with flag `--long` a tabular format including the remote names, types and descriptions. Using flag `--json` produces machine-readable output instead, which always includes all attributes - including the source (file or environment).

Result can be filtered by a filter argument which applies to all attributes, and/or filter flags specific for each attribute. The values must be specified according to regular rclone filtering pattern syntax.
