Rsync is a popular utility used for efficiently syncing files from one computer to another.

Files.com does not support Rsync directly. You can get comparable functionality through the Files.com Command Line App (CLI) or through rclone.

Command Line (CLI) App

To perform a sync with the CLI, add the --sync flag to the upload or download command. Only new files (based on modified date) will be transferred.

Here is a "push" (upload) example for syncing files from a local Documents folder to a Files.com folder of the same name:

files-cli upload Documents Documents --sync --send-logs-to-cloud

Here is a "pull" (download) example for syncing files to a local Documents folder from a Files.com folder of the same name:

files-cli download Documents Documents --sync --send-logs-to-cloud

Rclone is mature, open-source software originally inspired by rsync. Rclone supports Files.com and can be used to perform rsync actions with your Files.com site. Refer to our rclone documentation for more information.
