File Sync
File Sync: from Photopilot to your own drive
A small Windows app that puts the first photo of each exported product in a folder on your computer or network drive and keeps that folder up to date, even in the background.
The first photo of each product
The approved photo in position 1, using the same file name as your export. If you choose a different first photo in Photopilot, it replaces the file.
Everything from the past month, then only changes
The first time, File Sync fills the folder with products exported in the past 30 days. After that, it downloads only new and changed photos every few minutes.
Your files stay yours
File Sync never overwrites or deletes a file it did not create. It works on a local drive, a mapped network drive, or a path such as \\nas\winkel\Foto's.
Download
You always get the latest signed version; after that, File Sync updates itself automatically.
How to set it up
- Install
Download the installer above and open it. Administrator rights are not required.
- Paste API token
In Photopilot, copy your API token from Settings → API token and paste it into File Sync. The app immediately shows which organization it is connected to. The token is stored encrypted on your computer.
- Choose folder
Choose a local drive or mapped network drive, or paste a network path. File Sync immediately checks whether it can write there.
- Keep it running
If you close the window, File Sync keeps running in the system tray. With 'Start with Windows', it resumes automatically after every restart.
