Commandline Options
Command line arguments are described in the table below:
| Option |
Description |
| -s |
Start synchronization of one or more jobs. If the list of jobs is omitted the command is equal to "synchronize all" command. |
| -e |
Exit application after successful synchronization. |
| -m |
Start application minimized in the system tray. |
| -lf |
Change of logfile location into other existing folder. |
| -l |
Start application in "light" mode. Use this mode to avoid synchronizing at the beginning or end of the application when you have set the synchronize on application start or synchronize on application exit options. |
Command line arguments may be specified in any order.
All of the following characters serve as command-line token-separators:
- space
- dash or minus
- comma
- quote
- tab
Start sync job
To execute synchronization for one or more sync jobs, specify the job name(s) on the command line following the -s option. By default, sync job names are the path on the left-hand side of the job options panel. Sync jobs can be given simpler, more meaningful names--just navigate from the profile-window menu-bar to the Job > Rename menu item. To simplify specification of sync jobs on the command line, give jobs short, simple names. For example, the following command starts the synchronization application and executes the sync job named "My Documents":
syncappw.exe -s "My Documents"
To specify multiple sync jobs, separate the sync job names by commas:
syncappw.exe -s "My Documents", "43A1B297B90946189FD2CD8129AE3190", "My Pictures"
To specify all sync jobs, omit jobs list:
syncappw.exe -s
Exit after synchronization
Specify this option to exit the application after completing the specified sync job(s). Otherwise, the application keeps running until closed. In the following example, the sync job "My Documents" is executed as soon as the synchronization application starts. When that sync job ends, the application exits.
syncappw.exe -s "My Documents" -e Minimize application
When this option is included, the synchronization application executes without displaying the user interface. An icon for the application is added to the system tray on the taskbar. Left-clicking on the icon causes the user interface to be displayed immediately. Right-clicking on the icon displays a context menu with several options. In the following example, the sync job "My Documents" is executed as soon as the synchronization application starts, but the profile window is not displayed. The application icon is added to the system tray on the taskbar.
syncappw.exe -s "My Documents" -m
Change logfile location
As the list of jobs is omitted all jobs will be done (equal to "synchronize all" command). The new location of logfile is "c:\logs\". The "Save log in file" option should be set.
syncappw.exe -s -lf "c:\logs" |
