OneDrive is a cloud storage service of Microsoft.

Mount on Ubuntu

OneDriver

OneDriver is a simple tool that allows a OneDrive account to be mounted to a folder. To download and install it use the following commands:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jstaf/onedriver

sudo apt update

sudo apt install onedriver

To add accounts to mount search for OneDriver and open the program. All the added accounts should be listed. To add click on the "+" in the top left corner. This will open another window in which you have to select a mountpoint, so select a folder of create one and continue. Then another window will open in which you have to log into the OneDrive account you want to add. After this the account should appear in the list of added accounts.

Warning! It seems that from time to time one has to log into OneDrive again. Check every now and then to avoid having backups of "empty" directories.

Rclone

This is a software that can be used to mount different cloud storages to a computer. However it is a bit complicated and didn't want to work when I tried it.
