Date created/modified changes with upload
Hi Paul,
Normally when moving files over (from share to share, or from disk to share, etc.) the file dates remain unchanged, but when moving over to SharePoint (using the file upload button in the library) the file date changes. When using the sync client file dates are preserved.
For the record: we don't want to use Third Party tools, for multiple reasons. Our expectation was that the file upload would keep existing document properties.
Kind regards,
Sonny
I am afraid that the main reason is that it is not moved but created in SharePoint. And in Onedrive and other tools it is being moved.
So i guess there is no solution for it than the solution to use OneDrive which i prefer anyway for syncing especially when you also use Metadata.
Kr,
Paul
I understand, but I've seen it working on web apps with preversation of metadata while uploading, so my guess is Microsoft may have something up their sleeve to fix this issue :-)
