Multiple Sync options called from the spoke

[amallison]

Can you have multiple sync options (scripts) on the spoke?

ie

could I have one that syncs photos when back in the office with wi-fi and another that syncs text throughout the day while on the road?

Could we also specifically just sync (fetch) one field on one record? eg just a photo when required

I could think of a dozen scripts that could save network traffic and enhance user experience

MirrorSync does not currently support multiple sync configurations for a single FileMaker file.

 

This is a significant change, and it will happen in version 3, but I have no timeline at this point for when it will be ready.

 

In the meantime, there is a workaround - you can create multiple FileMaker files that share table occurrences, and assign a sync configuration to each one. This is documented in more detail here:
