Hi!
I just wanted to set up a new profile on SyncBack Pro v11 (latest version) to sync or copy files and folders from source Onedrive (personal) to target OneDrive account, also a personal but a different one.
Unfortunately, SBP does not offers this method. Guess, I can do this job with two profiles and temporary save the files locally, better would be, however, a direct sync.
Am I correct? SBP is not capable right now of synching from OneDrive to OneDrive?

Re: Sync or copy between two OneDrive accounts
Hello,
I had the same need.
Indeed I could not do that with SyncBack pro.
I found the solution using a Synology NAS and its CloudSync app
You create two Cloudsync accounts (Onedrive A and Onedrive C) and a shared folder C on the NAS...
And it synchronizes automatically:
A <> C <> B
And it works very well... (And also with Microsoft365 Family with 5 accounts)
Good ! I understand a NAS is not cheap... But when you love you don't count!
Of course you can do that, as you say in your message, by going through a computer. But with a NAS, the machine synchronizes permanently for you.
However, you cannot work on the same document as if you were on the same Onedrive account. Let me explain: If on Onedrive A and Onedrive C you open the same document and change it simultaneously, a conflict file is created on the Nas.
(Hence my post viewtopic.php?p=53070#p53070 which has remained unanswered since 2021)
In my situation, as another solution, I also tried to share "the entire" Onedive A with Onedrive C with "can edit" authorization. It works very well. I don't know if it meets your needs.
My message is written with Google translate... sorry if there are mistakes...
Good luck
ömür

Re: Sync or copy between two OneDrive accounts
Ömür, thanks for your reply!
I own a Synology NAS, too and already thought about using CloudSync, too. I did not try so far, but I will do since others have reported this to be a possible solution for synching OneDrive to local storage and vice versa.
My planned work flow, however, is to not to upload all of my files to my OneDrive account, but single files from different folders. I still want to have the choice what to upload or not, may be for privacy resaons and more, you know
CloudSync users told me to use some filters to achieve the above, hence I will try this approach anytime soon.
My initial post describes a totally differenc szeario, though and you mentioned it to be possible with your answer, thanks again.
I was in the process of migrating some files from a OneDrive account A to OneDrive account B. Not a permanent sync but a one time sync. I thought this would be an easy task with SBP without using a temporary file storage between two single migration runs: 1) OneDrive A -> local, 2) local -> OneDrive B.
Obviously SyncBack Pro is not capable of doing so.
Have a nice day,
Michael
