Hi @jebrown1,
Are you planning to move the Google Drive desktop client local files into the odrive folder? If so, take a look at this post for information on doing that:
As for deletes, odrive is a bi-direction sync engine, so changes you make in the cloud, including deletes, will be reflected locally. Local changes you make will be held in the “odrive trash” and not committed to the cloud unless the user empties it.
