Enhancements

Enhanced Restore UI for increased visibility and actionable insights
The new inSync restore UI now provides additional details about the restore progress, time elapsed, and incomplete or failed restore responses. Such actionable insights help you to quickly understand and address simple issues with minimal involvement of inSync administrators.
Capability to define MIME types
We have introduced the option to backup data based on file MIME types to ensure that you do not miss out on backing up critical data.
If your inSync administrator has defined file inclusions using MIME types for backup and provided you permissions to add folders for backup, you can now configure additional folders for backup using file MIME types.
To learn more about defining MIME types, see Add folders.
Enhanced settings for inSync notifications
You can now select from a range of inSync notifications to get inSync notifications for all inSync activities or just the critical ones requiring your immediate attention.
To learn more about notifications, see Configure inSync notifications.
Enhanced preferences to allow and restrict networks
You can now get precise control over allowing inSync backups only on preferred networks and restricting backups when you are connected through metered networks. Also, to ensure you get the required clarity, the enhanced inSync Client interface displays the network settings configured by your inSync administrator.
To learn more about network settings, see Allow and block specific networks.
Known Issue
If you are using inSync Client on macOS Catalina (10.15), you cannot complete the following actions using the keyboard shortcuts, if VoiceOver is in turned on mode:
-
Add folders for backup in Backup & Restore tab
-
Select folders or sub-folders for restore on the inSync Restore window
