These settings allow you to fine-tune folder monitoring (Real Time Synchronization).
Real Time Synchronization detects only current changes. Therefore we recommend to also give the profile a regular schedule on the "Schedule" tab sheet, where a full sync will be done.
(it will be run entirely once each time you run scheduler, or after a network disconnection.)
Process deletions when running in real time.

Syncovery can regularly check non-local folders for changes. This works best with cloud storages that use a changes-based listing method: Google Drive, Sharepoint, OneDrive, DropBox, and Box. On other storages, Syncovery can check the base folder for changes regularly, and scan subfolders if they have new modification timestamps. However, most servers will not update folder modification timestamps correctly across the whole hierarchy, so that a regular full scan would still be necessary. To avoid this, Syncovery itself can ensure that parent folder timestamps are updated when it uploads to an Internet server. It will do so in real-time two-way profiles, or if the option "Touch parent folders" is chosen on the Folders tab sheet in the profile. This technique usually works with FTP, SFTP, and WebDAV, but not with Amazon S3, Azure BLOB, Rackspace, and other cloud storages that do not support setting folder timestamps. Regularly poll Internet servers for changes (if changes API or folder timestamps are supported)
Also use this technique for other folders (rather than subscribing to file system events), on the:
Please note: cloud servers must not be polled too frequently. The absolute minimum is 30 seconds for these. |
