Recursively lock/unlock files from remote:path in Google Drive

[gitacct5]

What is your current rclone version (output from rclone version)?

v1.66.0

What problem are you are trying to solve?

Recursively lock/unlock files from remote:path in Google Drive

How do you think rclone should be changed to solve that?

Not sure if this is possible but I was hoping to use something like rclone lock remote:path --recursive and rclone unlock remote:path --recursive to lock/unlock files from Google Drive. Thanks!

You can lock google drive files. We could probably do this via an rclone backend command.

If you are interested in getting this added as a feature on behalf of your company then please get in touch via sales@rclone.com

Thanks, Ed. I was going through my personal files on Google Drive the other day and found that there isn't an easy way to batch lock files. It seems I have to lock the files one by one so I was wondering if batch locking is something rclone can do..

@gitacct5 if we did an rclone backend command then it could be made to do lots of files at once using recursion and --include and --exclude to select files.
