The app assumes that the binary content of attachments is kept in Cloud Client instead of the Odoo server. So, such attachments in Odoo become of the URL type, and you may any time access them either from the attachments box or from the Cloud Client.

After the setup, no manual actions are required, as the synchronization is fully automatic. Just decide which Odoo document types should be synced and set up a related model to sync for each of those (Customers, Sale or Purchase Orders, Tasks, Projects, etc.).

Yes, you can. To that goal, prepare a rule for each, and then those apply filters: for example by type of a project.

Try to make filters self-exclusive in order a document can be definitely assigned. For instance, 'customer but not supplier', 'supplier but not customer'. Otherwise, a specific document folder would jump from one model to another.

No. We have strong reasons to avoid real time sync:

• Performance issues. In case a sync is real time, each file upload will result in the loading screen.

• Conflict issues. If 2 users simultaneously change an item, it might lead to unresolved situations. In case of regular jobs we can fix it afterwards, while in case of real time we would need to save it as some queue, and it will be even more misleading for users.

• Functionality issues. In particular, renaming and restructuring of items. In the backward sync the tool strictly relies upon directories' logic, and during each sync 100% of items are checked. In case it is done after each update, it will be thousands of requests per second. If not: changes would be lost.

You may assign your name for models' directories (sale orders, opportunities, suppliers, etc.) for any document type.

For objects' folders (SO-001, John Smith, etc.), the tool relies upon the Odoo method to construct a display name for this document type. However, you can change that by defining the name expression. The exact syntax for Odoo email templates is used. 

No, starting from version 15, you should not change scheduled jobs. They are optimized to run every 15 minutes to guarantee the most stable and quick connection.

Ensure that your Odoo server timeouts are set for at least 15 minutes (900 seconds).

If you need to stop sync for a while, do that on a particular cloud client form.

Yes, starting from version 15, you can set up multiple connections. In this way, it is possible to sync some folders to one cloud client and others - to another.

Take into account that it is not any way possible to sync the same folder for a few cloud storages simultaneously.

Yes, depending on your cloud client configuration.

Starting from version 15, the app might be used stand-alone to structure attachments in folders and to provide a file manager interface.

However, if your goal is to establish a connection with one of its cloud clients, you would need at least one optional client-related app to be installed.

When a folder rule changes, the list of folders also changes. So, if a folder no longer matches the conditions of the folder rules - it is removed. If the files have been synced, the reversed sync returns them to Odoo and deletes them from the Cloud Client.

If a document's object doesn't match the conditions of a folder rule, then its folder will not be created. However, if it matches the conditions later, the related folder will be generated.
