A structured and traceable import method is recommended for data migrations with large amounts of data. A possible solution is described in the following section: Import with Goodsync


Import documents & folders with GoodSync

With GoodSync, documents and folders can be imported to buildagil in a simple and structured way. This method is particularly recommended for data migrations with a large number of files.


The import of large amounts of data can lead to the connection being temporarily throttled or interrupted for the logged-in user and individual files may have to be synchronized again. The throttling may also temporarily affect access to buildagil.


Data should preferably be imported overnight or at weekends, as the bandwidth is higher and throttling is lower at these times.


How the connection between buildagil and Goodsync can be established is described in the following article: Document exchange with Goodsync
