Hey, I recently got a second remarkable and now want to exchange annotated PDFs between the two accounts via rmapi.

I used a prebuild for Mac OS but am stuck now in changing the config location to the second remarkable account and upload all the files – how does it work?

Let me note, that I am a complete noob when it comes this command line stuff.

Use RCU.

Connect to tablet A. Download the PDF. This should save it as an .rmn file.

Connect to tablet B. Upload the .rmn file.

I was hoping it’s possible without buying RCU but light just go that way… Do you know if this uploaded file is then also integrated into the remarkable cloud service?

I don't use the cloud service so I can't answer from direct experience, but from what I can tell, it should. The sync client (on the tablet) would think it's just another newly created document, so it would sync it as a new file (and start the 50-day timer so it can stop sync'ing it if you aren't paying for a subscription).

I just tried it via RCU and it got instantly integrated in the cloud as you said. Thanks!

Cool, thanks for confirming. Now I know the answer for the next time somebody asks.
