So recently the sync button disappeared for some of our document libraries when in modern layout.
In classic they are still there and the sync works. It seems to be only for publishing sites. Anyone ideas?

Yes. The modern UI. It just happened. Classic UI shows the sync button and works as expected. Modern UI doesn't even show the sync button. Now its only on certain site collections. Looks to be only the publishing ones. Team sites look to be ok.

Hi Jonathon.
Out of curiosity, what do you have in the "three dots" menu?

Is the Offline Client Availability set to Yes for these sites? If you set it to No it will hide the sync button.

Is set to YES.
The sync button has suddenly disappeared (I think last Sunday).
Returning to classic Sharepoint solves the problem for now.

Add me to the list of puzzled and frustrated customers! At least Classic UI is a fallback option for now, but frustratingly the new UI sync button disappeared just as I was explaining SharePoint Online (and the new UI) to a customer for whom sync is an essential part of their solution!
I raised it in Microsoft Community, so also following:

Same here.
A lot of claims from my clients.
Please, anyone have any update about this?
