View or Edit a file within the Browser using Cloud Applications

Syncplicity Business Edition integrates with cloud applications Scribd, Zoho, and Google Docs for editing and viewing content in a secure environment without having to download files to an insecure computer.

 

Files can be edited directly via the browser through Business Edition’s cloud application integration. To open or edit a file:

  1. Mouse over a file and click on the Syncplicity logo.
  2. If a supported cloud application is compatible with this file type, it will appear at the bottom of the menu.

  3. Select a cloud application with which to open the file and click the corresponding menu option. In this example, this file has been opened using Zoho.

 

 

  1. A new window will appear opening the file within the selected cloud application. If the application supports saving a file, the saved version will be updated within the user account and synchronized.

 

Note: To open and edit files in Google Docs, you will need to set up syncing with Google.
