Adding synchronisation right to role definition

Hi,

For pro version only, we’d like to have a new rule in role definition.
We don’t want guest users to synchronize from the client, but we don’t want to block acces to the client.

Then, in this matrix :

ENABLED_ROLE_PERMISSIONS = {
    'default': {
        'can_add_repo': True,
        'can_add_group': True,
        'can_view_org': True,
        'can_use_global_address_book': True,
        'can_generate_share_link': True,
        'can_generate_upload_link': True,
        'can_invite_guest': True,
        'can_connect_with_android_clients': True,
        'can_connect_with_ios_clients': True,
        'can_connect_with_desktop_clients': True,
    },
    'guest': {
        'can_add_repo': False,
        'can_add_group': False,
        'can_view_org': True,
        'can_use_global_address_book': False,
        'can_generate_share_link': False,
        'can_generate_upload_link': False,
        'can_invite_guest': False,
        'can_connect_with_android_clients': True,
        'can_connect_with_ios_clients': True,
        'can_connect_with_desktop_clients': True,
    }
}

W’efd like a new rule :

'can_synchronize_with_clients': False,

Is it technically possible ?

Hi all,

Do you have any opinion on this feature request ?

If a user could only connect with the client but not sync any libraries, there is essentially nothing he can really do at all.
Even sharing can only be done when a library is synchronized.

So I don’t exactly see the use case for this.

He could actually use the cloud file explorer, but thats not something I’d install the client for. It’d be easier to just use seahub in such a case.

Hi @shoeper,
That’s exactly what i’d like to do. Some of our users regularly upload 2000+ files >5Gb in a tree folder. Using a browser is quite inpredictible and less sure than the file explorer.
Is there any way to upload files whithout a browser from a windows OS ?

Hi,

This post lay be related to this issue : Shibboleth affiliation and multi-institution

The feature request is still accurate for us.

Is that technically hard for the devs ?
