Basic 2-way drive mobile workflow in DSM7

[tdmatthews]

Greetings from a new forum member. I thought DSM7 introduced 2-way sync in Synology Drive?

ie I want to be able to open a document, edit it and save it back to drive. Currently I still seem to have to 'Send a copy', then save it locally and reupload it as a new file.

Was this functionality added? that would really allow me to fully replace OneDrive

Sounds like you're talking about using this on an iPhone/iPad? Have you tried accessing a document within the app you'll use to edit it, via the iOS Files API that most apps now support.

Oh my gosh that is exactly what I wanted. I'd been trying to open them from Drive (which isn't available as a source in the Office Apps), and if I opened it in Drive and send a copy to Excel, you don't get round trip.

I didn't realize Drive showed in Files, so going through Files I can do full round trip editing. Thanks so much!
