One-way vs Two-way Sync

Understanding the sync direction helps avoid unexpected changes.

All Cloud Hub currently supports two-way sync.

Two-Way Sync Explained

In two-way sync, changes made in either connected folder are reflected in the other.

For example:

  • A file added in Cloud A appears in Cloud B
  • A file updated in Cloud B updates in Cloud A
  • Renaming a file in either folder applies to both

This allows you to work from either cloud storage account without worrying about which one is the source.

Tip

Two-way sync works best when both folders are meant to stay identical.

One-Way Sync

One-way sync is not currently supported.

If one-way behavior is needed, it can be achieved manually using transfers instead of sync.

In Summary

All Cloud Hub uses two-way sync so folders remain aligned regardless of where changes are made.
