idgard® PW: Working in the local directory

Once the automatic synchronization is enabled for a box, you don't have to worry about manual uploads, data reconciliation or updates. According to your rights in the box and your local settings, the synchronization with the boxes in the idgard® web app will take place automatically.  You have marked a box that you have been working with online in the browser for a while for automatic synchronization. The files of this box are downloaded and can be found in the local directory. As usual, open documents and edit them, then save the documents. Your document will be uploaded again and made available to other participants of the box.

To synchronize files and folders manually, you have to trigger manual synchronization in the box list. This will create a local directory that can be used for future synchronization processes. If you edit files or add new ones, they will be uploaded during the next synchronization and the uploaded data will be downloaded by other users.
