Possible values are ''SynchronizationMode.Local'', ''SynchronizationMode.Remote'' and ''SynchronizationMode.Both''.  |

-| string remotePath | Full path to remote directory. | +| string ==remotePath== | Full path to remote directory. | 
-| bool removeFiles | When set to ''true'', deletes obsolete files. Cannot be used for ''SynchronizationMode.Both''. | +| bool ==removeFiles== | When set to ''true'', deletes obsolete files. Cannot be used for ''SynchronizationMode.Both''. | 
-| bool mirror | When set to ''true'', synchronizes in [[task_synchronize_full#synchronization_mode|mirror mode]] (synchronizes also older files). Cannot be used for ''SynchronizationMode.Both''. Defaults to ''false''. | +| bool ==mirror== | When set to ''true'', synchronizes in [[task_synchronize_full#mode|mirror mode]] (synchronizes also older files). Cannot be used for ''SynchronizationMode.Both''. Defaults to ''false''. | 
-| SynchronizationCriteria criteria | [[ui_synchronize#comparison_criteria|Comparison criteria]]. Possible values are ''SynchronizationCriteria.None'', ''SynchronizationCriteria.Time'' (default), ''SynchronizationCriteria.Size'' and ''SynchronizationCriteria.Either''. For ''SynchronizationMode.Both'' ''SynchronizationCriteria.Time'' can be used only. | +| SynchronizationCriteria ==criteria== | [[ui_synchronize#criteria|Comparison criteria]]. The parameter is a bit field of any of ''SynchronizationCriteria.Time'' (default), ''SynchronizationCriteria.Size'' and ''SynchronizationCriteria.Checksum''. ''SynchronizationCriteria.None'' can be used as an alias to empty bit field. For backward compatibility, ''SynchronizationCriteria.Either'' can be used as an alias to ''Time %%|%% Size''. For ''SynchronizationMode.Both'', ''SynchronizationCriteria.Time'' can be used only. | 
-| [[library_transferoptions|TransferOptions]] options | Transfer options. Defaults to ''null'', what is equivalent to ''new TransferOptions()''. |+| [[library_transferoptions|TransferOptions]] ==options== | Transfer options. Defaults to ''null'', what is equivalent to ''new TransferOptions()''. |

Event ''[[library_session_filetransferred|Session.FileTransferred]]'' is raised for every uploaded or downloaded file. Event ''[[library_session_filetransferred|Session.FileTransferred]]'' is raised for every uploaded or downloaded file.
 +
 +To further customize the synchronization, use instead a combination of [[library_session_comparedirectories|''Session.CompareDirectories'']] and [[library_comparisondifference_resolve|''ComparisonDifference.Resolve'']]. This allows synchronizing only selected differences, changing synchronization order or customizing error handling.
