OneDriveGUI VS office365-pol

I am trying to use the OneDrive I get from my university on my Fedora 38 laptop. I tried two different programs 1 & 2. But when they redirect me to OneDrive's website, I get an error that the admins have to approve the application. The IT told me they won't do it, so I am looking for possible workarounds. Is there any cloud storage aggregator platform, like a website where you can add different cloud storage services? Then, I might be able to use that client to sync. Or do you have any other ideas what I can do?

I used this link to install OneDrive and this one for OneDrive GUI. It is syncing and seems to work well.

Via the OneDrive Client for Linux - https://github.com/abraunegg/onedrive - this 'syncs' your data, bi-directional operation, open source and free. Supports Personal, Business & SharePoint account types and Shared Folders. A Docker container is also available for all major architectures (x86_64, ARMHF, AARCH64). If you need a GUI for onedrive client management use: https://github.com/bpozdena/OneDriveGUI

There are OneDriveGUI which uses abraunegg's onedrive client as backend, onedriver which has been around with a GUI for longer, and of course the classic Insync which is paid.

It was an application bug, the developer fixed it in https://github.com/bpozdena/OneDriveGUI/issues/41#issuecomment-1192894239 . Seems to be https://github.com/bpozdena/OneDriveGUI/commit/a1fd40e31033aea5422bf340e9bb151c23f31858 .

When you get to it - there are only 5 reliable ways to access OneDrive on Linux/Unix platforms: * Via the OneDrive Client for Linux - https://github.com/abraunegg/onedrive - this 'syncs' your data, bi-directional operation, open source and free. Supports Personal, Business & SharePoint account types and Shared Folders. A Docker container is also available for all major architectures (x86_64, ARMHF, AARCH64). If you need a GUI for onedrive client management use: https://github.com/bpozdena/OneDriveGUI * Via the 'onedriver' client - https://github.com/jstaf/onedriver - Native file system that only provides the OneDrive 'on-demand' functionality, open source and free. Supports Personal, Business account types. Currently does not support Shared Folders or SharePoint. * Via 'rclone' - https://rclone.org/ - one way sync client, open source and free. Has limitations with SharePoint. * Via non-free clients such as 'insync', 'ExpanDrive' * Via the web browser of your choice

FYI there is a GUI for the 'onedrive' CLI client as well - have a look at https://github.com/bpozdena/OneDriveGUI

Here's a open source onedrive alternative, there is also a GUI for it

git clone https://github.com/bpozdena/OneDriveGUI.git cd OneDriveGUI python -m pip install -r requirements.txt cd src/ python OneDriveGUI.py

Now they do office365-pol

Yes, I know of it. I currently use it from AUR. I use CrossOver specifically and only for Office 365 (that and support Wine development). I saw that Bottles does have a winecx build in their list of runners, but I haven't seen an Installer for Office yet, so while in theory I could use Bottles, I'm currently sticking with CrossOver for this specific usecase.

Or just give up and run Office 365 via CrossOver. There's apparently a way to get it working with PoL for free, but with my distro-hopping ways and the fact that I need to do it for work (instead of for fun) I have no patience for that. Plus, it feels good to donate for Wine/Proton development anyways and even better if I have an actual use for it.

For Office, the option currently is either use CrossOver (which is paid, though it can be cheaper with discounts) to install Office or to use a fairly lengthy process to follow the process CrossOver does manually. While I'm currently pinning my hope on Bottles Installer, for now WPS Office mostly works fine as long as you don't work with macros.
