I was reading about distributed collaborations recently for a different reason and it’s helped me understand the message better I think*. I think the message we are getting about bidirectional syncing has to do with distributed collaborations and maybe this is something to ask tech support about. It might be where the confusion is coming from for us because when I think of “bidirectional syncing” I think of syncing in both directions between the mobile device and the database, but what the message is talking about is actually between “bidirectional collaborations” which I assume is in reference to distributed collaborations. If you’re not using distributed collaborations, based on the own message page’s suggestion, the message can be ignored and we don’t have to do anything. The wording of the message is poor if what they’re actually talking about with it has to do with distributed collaborations, but that’s the most sense I can make out of it.
I thought I had tried to publish and bidirectionally sync my data between device and database anyway (I think I did and it worked fine) when I got this message, but I made the post so long ago I can’t remember now. I’ll have to test it in the coming weeks.
