- User: Infomaniak user account email address.
- Password: Infomaniak user account password
- If two-step verification is not enabled, use your Infomaniak account password.
- If two-step verification is enabled, generate an application password here: https://manager.infomaniak.com/v3/profile/application-password.

You can choose a subfolder as the source folder, combining the kDrive ID and the desired folder by entering e.g. https://IDkDrive.connect.kdrive.infomaniak.com/My/Subfolder
or https://IDkDrive.connect.kdrive.infomaniak.com/MykDrive/My/Subfolder
