Announcement: Major OneDrive updates at Ignite 2016 include SharePoint Online sync preview
OneDrive and SharePoint work together to make storing and accessing all your files simple and powerful. We recently outlined a vision for file management in Office 365 that included a set of new feat...
Hey Lana,
This really is great news, however, I have a few questions around the concept.
- Has the Merging of updates to Documents got any better e.g if 4 people had it opened offline then uploaded is it now smart enough to merge the changes?
- If you have sync'd the contents of a Library and the permissions on the site change will it remove the content once an internet connection has been restored?
- How does search work with this? The video mentions you can search for content within OneDrive but that's not an Enterprise search such as SharePoint so would only see content within your OneDrive, so my question is how does metadata work when it's applied to the Team site against searching across OneDrive, are we limited to Title and Author for example?
- When can we expect the push notifications to Android?
- With the dedicated ONeDrive admin console (Which look awesome by the way), is this limited to your content only or anything you have sync'd has the policy applied? e.g if I sync'd several team sites would the policy to stop Copying, printing etc apply?
I have more questions around the future of OneDrive but for now I think this gives me what I need :).
P.S keep up the good work, this really is a step in the right direction!!!
