There must be but I never got it to work and it's not documented so it's subject to change. There's documented REST API[1] I got this from Clementine's code: https://login.live.com/oauth20_token.srf?client_id=0000000040111F16&client_secret=w2ClguSX0jG56cBl1CeUniypTBRjXt2Z&grant_type=refresh_token&refresh_token= If you install clementine and login to onedrive you'll have a refresh_token on the config file. Append it to that url and it'll give you an access token good for five minutes. Then to list the contents of a folder: https://apis.live.net/v5.0/folder.<cid>.<id>/files?access_token=<access_token> to get a file (this will give you a direct url on the source field): https://apis.live.net/v5.0/file.<cid>.<id>?access_token=<access_token> Maybe you can play with the webdav urls and the access token and see if you can get it to work. -- Fernando Rodriguez
