Description

Hi, I got these when using a Apple ID (cn)


NOTICE: Fatal error: HTTP error 302 (302 Found) returned body: "{\"domainToUse\":\"iCloud.com.cn\"}"

CRITICAL: Failed to create file system for "iCloud:": missing icloud trust token: try refreshing it with "rclone config reconnect iCloud:"

Any progress?

china right? not supported right now (china uses a different server)

Research direction
Investigate the iCloud China server endpoints (iCloud.com.cn) and modify the iCloud backend in backend/icloud/ to include a new option for China Mainland. The authentication flow may differ; refer to the discussion in issue #7717 and comments in this issue for details. Test with a Chinese Apple ID.
