Dropbox sync conflict resolution

ash_m

Does 1Password6 auto resolve sync conflicts in Dropbox? The reason I ask is Dropbox notified me of a sync conflict on a 1Password file and shortly after, it notified me that the conflict file had been removed! So I'm thinking maybe 1Password handles this behind the scenes automagically?

Hi @ash_m ,

Yes - when there is a conflict file, 1Password will read both the original and conflict file, merge the two, and remove the conflict file. If there is data it can not merge (for example, if you edited a field to two different values on two devices), 1Password will add a "conflict field" to the item and put the extra value there. 1Password will not discard any data.

I hope that answers your questions. Feel free to reply if you have further questions.

Cheers,
Kevin
