When creating a job through the user interface, version preservation is enabled on the Behaviors page. The Preserve file versioning between locations toggle indicates if the feature is enabled or disabled for the job. By default, version preservation is enabled (green toggle with a check mark). Select the toggle to disable it for the job (gray toggle with an x).The “preserve” options determine if SkySync DryvIQ will preserve versioning in the transfer. The default option is to preserve All versions.

...

  • none: This option turns version detection off, and SkySync DryvIQ will not preserve versions in the transfer. Only the latest version of the file will be transferred on the initial job run. Version detection will not be used on subsequent job runs, so new versions added to the file after the initial run will not be identified or transferred.

  • native: This option turns version preservation on, and SkySync DryvIQ will preserve versions in the transfer. When this option is selected, use the “select” options to control which versions should transfer. This is the default “preserve” option.

...

If you select “native” as the preserve option, use the "select" option to specify which versions should transfer.

  • all: SkySync DryvIQ will transfer all versions of the file. However, if the number of versions exceeds the version limit of the destination platform, SkySync DryvIQ will transfer the most recent file version and continue to transfer the versions in order until the version limit is reached. You can configure the number of versions you want to maintain on the source and/or destination. (See From Source and From Destination below for more information.)

  • latest: SkySync DryvIQ will only transfer the latest version of the file. If SkySync DryvIQ identifies a new version of the file has been added after the initial job run, SkySync DryvIQ will transfer the newest version on subsequent job runs, even if there are many versions on the source.

  • published: If a platform supports the concept of publishing files, SkySync DryvIQ will only transfer the “published” versions of the file. (This option can also be used for Dropbox connections to ensure transfer of true file versions. See Transferring Versions with Dropbox below for more information.)

  • unpublished: If a platform supports the concept of publishing files, SkySync DryvIQ will only transfer the “unpublished” versions of the file (a version that was removed from a previously published state).

...

This options allows you to set the default number of versions you want to maintain on the source platform. When set, SkySync DryvIQ will only keep the specified number of versions–deleting any versions over the set number. 

...

This option allows you to set the default number of versions to maintain on the destination platform. When set, SkySync DryvIQ will only transfer the set number of versions. 

Not all platforms support version deletes. When a specific transfer value is set and the destination platform doesn’t support version deletes, SkySync DryvIQ will use the following logic to determine how it handles transferring the versions:

If the file doesn’t exist on destination, SkySync DryvIQ will respect the version limit set and only transfer the set number of versions during the initial copy/migration.

If the file exists on destination, SkySync DryvIQ will migrate all new versions of the file from the source to the destination, even if it results in exceeding the file version limit set on version count. This ensures all new content is transferred. SkySync DryvIQ will log a warning to inform the user that the transfer took place and resulted in the transfer count being exceeded.
