Additional Details From ODSyncUtil

[aakash-shah]

Hello! I have a few team sites connected to my primary OD4B account, and I have 2-3 separate OD4B accounts on separate tenants. Since there is more than 1 account/site, it is difficult to determine which returned object corresponds to which folder path/site.

While looking further into the returned SyncRootId I found some related information at 2 locations:

The key below appears to reveal both the folder path, the SPO URL, and also appears to indicate whether it's the primary site or a Team Site. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SyncEngines\Providers\OneDrive

I found another key, which corresponds to the SyncRootId, although it appears to have fewer useful attributes (from what I can tell) at this location: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\SyncRootManager

I wasn't sure if your code perhaps references either of these registry locations. Do you have any plans to include this additional information in the output of ODSyncUtil.exe or perhaps Get-ODStatus.ps1?

Thanks!

FYI I added some PowerShell code on a local copy of Get-ODStatus.ps1 to help extract information from these 2 registry locations. If you would be interested, let me know and I'll try to figure out how to contribute this in GitHub. I recognize this would split the extraction functionality from the exe file though since the rest of the logic is in there.

It’s an important detail to add and it would be better implemented in the C++ portion. I will make the change.

Sounds good, thanks!

Here are the fields I thought were interesting to consider: HKCU\Software\SyncEngines\Providers\OneDrive: MountPoint LibraryType UrlNamespace WebUrl LastModifiedTime (figured would be better as DateTime)

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\SyncRootManager: DisplayNameResource TenantName

Perhaps you may have more info, but I was unclear how LastModifiedTime worked since the date/times don't seem to make sense to me. But I figured it would be nice to include it so that we could leverage it when we do figure out how it works.

I look forward to whatever fields you decide to add into the C code!

Thanks!

The initial request plus the status string (I could find the exact names in the API enum). Those latest fields are not so universal as you think, but I believe UrlNamespace is useful but I will not implement now as it requires matching the OneDrive type to the key.

Ok thanks. I can add the additional information on my end if I need - appreciate your help with this!
