Accessing .cloud and .cloudf files programatically

Feature Requests
1

We currently use DropBox to store files and access these in our application. I would love to switch to odrive to allow us to make use of placeholders and save disk space. Is it possible to access the files in .NET and have odrive sync the file?

For example lets say this file path exists.
C:\Temp\SubFolder1\TestFile.txt
this is simple enough.

Now using odrive and place holders we have this path
C:\Temp\SubFolder1.cloudf
How do we access the file that would exist in
C:\Temp\SubFolder1\TestFile.txt

Thanks for any help

Hello

The answer is yes. We are about to release a command line utility as well as an API to the odrive client. You will be able to sync and unsync files programmatically from .NET. The feature is designed for your use case. The feature is almost ready for release. If you would like to preview and help test the feature, please let me know.

thanks
