Thanks for clarifying the delete functionality, I understand that now. Can you give a better description of an obsolete file. I have read through the synchronizefiles function definition page multiple times and it's not clear to me what that really means.

Thanks

You misunderstand what the removeFiles parameter does.
It's for deleting obsolete files, not for deleting transferred files.
