Sharepoint Sync Client

dpjmie

Hi Guys,

Im wondering if anyone knows of any good alternative to OneDrive4Business (groove.exe) as a sharepoint sync client or even if one exists?

Any advice is appreciated

Cheers in advance

Did you find anything to allow this other than onedrive? I am also looking now, I would like the abality to download all from sharepoint to my clients desktops and still keep permissions on folders.

Hey

I was able to mount the SP path as a shared drive. You need to sign into the SP in Internet Explorer and remember to check the sign in details... There is a guide I will post later

Will this only work for onsite Sharepoint? We are only online.

Our SP was online and not local.....

1) Sign in online using Internet Explorer (Remember to choose remember pass)

2) Look along the top tabs for Open in Explorer (In your home dir)

3) When file explorer opens, map the address that is in the Address bar.

Note: If you clear cache & cookies in IE, it will remove the credentials for the SP mapping.
