Files and folders stored in the Fabasoft Cloud are accessible via WebDAV (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4918: new window).
To synchronize files and folders to local devices, a sync client has to do a deep traversal of the folder structure, starting at a user’s topmost root folder. To keep the information current repeated traversals of the folder structure must be made.
Using the method outlined in this document, a sync client can query for changes since the last deep traversal enabling up-to-date information with less processing and network bandwidth requirements.
