sync order

Post by stan »

We purchased a Pro license and trying to achieve the followings, moving through by the step order

Step 1 – Monitor (or every 5 or 10 mins) and Copy files from the source directory to a Dev directory
Step 2 - Move files from the source directory to a Sales dir
Step 3 – Move OR Copy files from Dev to S3 bucket
Step 4 – Move files from Sales dir to a 3rd party SFTP

Is such an "execute by order" function available? the only way I see is to set up the different schedules e.g. running each of them with 5mins gap.

The reason behind that, both the 3rd party and DEV want to work on the files in source dir but MOVE action is the only option for 3rd party otherwise it may cause record duplication.

Hello,
you can chain profiles, as explained on the page below. You will probably want to use the method explained under "Chaining profiles directly".
https://www.syncovery.com/documentation/faq/chaining/

Sometimes, two steps can be combined in a single profile. This is the case if you need to move (not copy) files to two destinations (the main destination and an archive destination on the source side). In such cases, you would use the "Move Files to Destination" mode, and specify the main destination as the right-hand profile base path, and the archive destination under Files->Deletions. Click on "Move Deleted Files Into A Specified Folder..." and specify the folder for the "L:" side according to the examples on the dialog.
