Sync external OneDrive shared folders
- Jan 23, 2018
You cannot sync folders shared from a user belonging to another organization.
Oh, pretty please, make this happen, OneDrive/SharePoint team!
I've grown so accustomed to the new document sync that I can't really function otherwise. And yet now we have a client who requires us to keep all work in their SharePoint document library that they've shared with us... except I can't sync that to my PC, so there's no way I can work on it directly and will have to keep a copy locally and upload periodically.
The funny thing is I can see the "Sync" button in the document library, except the sync client won't let me finish the setup.

The sync button being there and "attempting to start the process" is the worst part. It allows customers/users to believe that it should work while blatantly it's not a completed feature.
