    10  # rclone backend
    11  
    12  Run a backend-specific command.
    13  
    14  ## Synopsis
    15  
    16  
    17  This runs a backend-specific command. The commands themselves (except
    18  for "help" and "features") are defined by the backends and you should
    19  see the backend docs for definitions.
    20  
    21  You can discover what commands a backend implements by using
    22  
    23      rclone backend help remote:
    24      rclone backend help <backendname>
    25  
    26  You can also discover information about the backend using (see
    27  [operations/fsinfo](/rc/#operations-fsinfo) in the remote control docs
    28  for more info).
    29  
    30      rclone backend features remote:
    31  
    32  Pass options to the backend command with -o. This should be key=value or key, e.g.:
    33  
    34      rclone backend stats remote:path stats -o format=json -o long
    35  
    36  Pass arguments to the backend by placing them on the end of the line
    37  
    38      rclone backend cleanup remote:path file1 file2 file3
    39  
    40  Note to run these commands on a running backend then see
    41  [backend/command](/rc/#backend-command) in the rc docs.
    42  
    43  
    44  ```
    45  rclone backend <command> remote:path [opts] <args> [flags]
    46  ```
