Easily synchronize from "Dropbox" to "file server" with "RealSync"

This is Ohara from the technical sales department.

I always use Dropbox as a temporary storage location for Excel data and when exchanging large amounts of data with customers

However, the data created with Dropbox needs to be backed up to an in-house file server, but
I thought it would be troublesome to manually copy it to the file server every time, so I was looking for a way to automatically synchronize the data, and I found
RealSync I found a synchronization software called ``.

I will write the steps to automatically synchronize data from "Dropbox" to "File Server" using "RealSync"

Please download it from the official website below.

Setting folders to synchronize

There is a file called "RealSync.exe" in the rsync193 folder that you downloaded earlier, so
use this file to configure the folders you want to synchronize.

When you open "RealSync.exe", the screen below will appear, so open "Update".

As below,

① Enter "Update source" → "Location of data you want to synchronize/back up".
② Enter “Update destination” → “Synchronization/backup destination location”.

Once you have completed inputting ① and ②, click "OK" at the bottom right.

Next, return to the first screen and click Options → General Settings.

Check "Automatic Update" and enter the "Time Interval" for synchronization/backup.
The minimum time can be set in "1 minute intervals".
Click OK after entering the information.

Preparations for synchronization and backup are now complete.
After that, it will be automatically synchronized and backed up from Dropbox to the file server.

You can see that it is automatically synchronized at the set time interval as shown below.

Other optional features include ``sync only specified extensions'' and ``log by date.''
