Any way to define an ignored files list on the server site to avoid client synchronization?

Hi all,

I’m wondering if it is possible to define, on the server side and as admin, a list of files to be ignored by the clients?

I want to globally ban the synchronization of some files, like “.exe", ".iso” or “*.partial”.

I would be great to do it in a centralized way, instead of manually add all the entries to the ignored files list on every single client :slight_smile:

Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions!
