Bulk Syncing multiple document libraries

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2

Hello,

Apologies in advance, I was referred here by a Microsoft mod but unsure if this is the correct area within Power Automate discussion.

I manage a large amount of SharePoint sites for a large organization. Recently, I have moved away from allowing one document library to host all files for a SharePoint site, each one now has three document libraries. Before I institute this practice across the remaining bulk of my sites..

Is there a way to sync all document libraries in one SharePoint site at once? This is a minor inconvenience for the users that are a member of just one site but different for users who need access to everything. This would require them to individually sync each document library across a large amount of Sharepoint sites.

I have been made aware this feature does not exist within SharePoint.

Is it possible to use Power Automate to bulk sync all document libraries within a single SharePoint site?

Any help is appreciated!

Thank you!

    Hi
     
    Apologies I am confused what you mean Sync across sites? It sounds like you want to take files on SiteA and sync them on Siteb and SiteC??
     
    I mean, yes you can use Power Automate to .... you say sync them as a one time thing, and/or as files are added or updated in SiteA to copy/move/create them on other sites for sure.
     
    Just need a little more clarity on what the term "sync means"
     
    Can you draw a pseudo picture so its a little clearer for me.
     
    Cheers

    Hello!
     
    I have attached a screenshot from a test SharePoint site to explain in greater detail. 
     
    My SharePoint site, TEST SITE 3, has three document libraries. For each document library to be synced to the user's file explorer, they must go into each document library and hit the sync button one at a time.
     
    Is there a way to sync these three document libraries to file explorer in one click using Power Automate?
     
    Thank you!
