How to Connect pCloud to CloudPairs

pCloud connects with OAuth. CloudPairs detects whether your account is in the US or EU datacenter and uses the correct API host.

Setup

Step-by-step connection guide

1

Open Add Cloud Connection and select pCloud.

2

Name the connection

Enter a display name such as pCloud Personal or pCloud EU Archive.

3

Authorize with pCloud

Click Authorize with pCloud and approve access in the browser.

4

Confirm datacenter

CloudPairs shows the connected email and detected US/EU datacenter.

5

Save and transfer

Save pCloud and pair it with local disks, S3/R2, SFTP, FTP, Dropbox, OneDrive, WebDAV, or Synology.

Best practices

Use pCloud safely and efficiently

Region is automatic

Do not manually guess US vs EU. CloudPairs reads the region during authorization.

Use automation for backups

Pro users can schedule pCloud folders to back up to S3, R2, or another endpoint.

Troubleshooting

Common connection issues

Authorization fails

Retry sign-in, check browser pop-up blocking, and confirm the pCloud account is active.

Region mismatch

Re-authorize the account so CloudPairs refreshes the API hostname and datacenter.
