SkySync uses jobs to perform specific actions between the source and destination platforms. The most common type of jobs are copy and sync.  

Transfer Types

Transfer type determines how content is transferred from the source to the destination. Some transfer types are set based on the transfer direction selected on the Job Type page, while others are set using a combination of the selected transfer direction and policy settings. The most common type of jobs are copy and sync. 

Copy

This transfer type is set when you select Transfer in one direction from a Source to a Destination as the transfer direction. This will copy all content (files, folders) from the source to the destination. Each Job run will detect any new content on the source and copy it to the destination. SkySync never modifies source content for a copy job. It only creates matching content on the destination. Subsequent job runs will evaluate the source for new content, and only this new content will be copied to the destination.

When a failure occurs during a copy transfer, the Job will continue and flag the failures at the end for review. When a failure occurs at the folder level, SkySync will not traverse this folder's content. It will be skipped, and the next folder will be evaluated for copy transfer.

When a failure occurs during a move transfer, the job will continue and flag the failures at the end for review. When a failure occurs at the folder level, we will not traverse this folder's content. It will be skipped and the next folder will be evaluated for Move transfer.

When a failure occurs during a copy folder structure transfer, the job will continue and flag the failures at the end for review. When a failure occurs at the parent folder level, SkySync will not traverse this folder's subfolders. It will be skipped, and the next folder will be evaluated for Copy Folder Structure transfer.
