Question

Syncing source folder after files removed/added

Hi RH community, 

I am a beginner level RH 2020 user and I have been tasked to create a knowledge base for controls - which are basically sql scripts that are used to maintain data integrity. 

I was successfully able to link source folder and import word files into RH and generate topics in the author pane. Now the question I have is if more controls are added or removed in the linked folder, how can I sync RH and my source folder to show updated topic list without having to delete, link and re-sync the folder again?

 

 

Thanks in advance!

    Test this in a copy of your project as whilst I believe these are the correct steps, I haven't tested them.

     

    After linking the first time you will have created topics that will subsequently show a green or a red arrow to indicate they are in or out of sync.

     

     

    To update the folder use the From Source to Project option shown above. That will change the documents you see. Do not make changes in the document in the project and then use From Project to Source without checking that works. 

     

    Let us know how you get on please as that will help others.
