Can I Do A 1-Way Sync With Adds Only?

I'm not on a machine where I have Sync installed or I'd just test this myself but hopefully it's an easy question for someone who knows

 

I want to sync a folder on computer A to a folder on computer B (obviously).  However, I don't want any changes on computer B to come back to computer A.  AND I only want ADDs on computer A to get synced over.

 

If I add something to A, it syncs to B.

If I delete something on A, I don't want it to also delete on B

If I add or delete something on B, I don't want that to do anything to A

 

Can that be done?

 

Thanks.

Unfortunately, such mode is not possible, although read-only one is very close to what you ask. If you share read-only link to computer B, next things will happen:

- if you add something on A, it will be synced to B

- if you delete something, it will be deleted on B (moved to archive)

- if you delete / add / remove something on B, it won't do anything to A.
