MirrorSync 5 and Passwords for Offline Files

I noticed there were some improvements mentioned for MirrorSync 5 around password. I am currently using MirrorSync 4. With MirrorSync 5, are you now able to sync passwords to offline files? One of our biggest challenges is managing passwords for our offline iPad users, since if they forget their password, there is no way to reset it without re-downloading the whole file.

 

Thanks.

Hello,

With MirrorSync 5, on the initial sync, the user is prompted a password input for the sync credentials(the creds used to log into the hub file to conduct the sync). MirrorSync will store this password in a HSQL table and provides the syncing database with a UUID associated with the password entry. On subsequent syncs, MirrorSync will reference this UUID to select the password for logging into the hub. This is strictly for convenience to reduce the number of times a user is prompted password input to only when they log into their database, and for the initial sync. This feature will not help users who forgot their password and are unable to log into their database instance.
