OneDrive Sync

We've introduced a new OneDrive integration, allowing you to add files directly from OneDrive to the Smartsign media library and choose how they should be managed. When adding a file, you can decide whether it should remain linked to OneDrive with automatic updates or be stored as an independent copy in Smartsign. The feature includes:

  • The ability to add files directly from OneDrive to the media library.
  • A prompt when adding a file from OneDrive to choose between enabling sync or adding a copy.
  • A "Sync" entry in the file's properties when sync is enabled, showing the sync type (currently OneDrive).
  • Disabled name editing (and other non-editable synced attributes) in media details while sync is active.
  • An optional "Sync" column in the media library list view, showing the sync type for quick visibility.
  • A visible unlink icon in the sync info section that removes synchronization and converts the file to regular media.
  • Files are synced with a one-hour interval.

This feature improves transparency and control over how imported files are managed, helping you decide whether updates in OneDrive should automatically carry over to Smartsign or remain independent. The "Sync" list column is optional and can be enabled in the list view column settings. If a file is unlinked it will no longer update from OneDrive-re-enabling sync requires re-adding the file from OneDrive.
