Synchronization Server Help


Identifying the group

When a user requests synchronization, the Sync Server authenticates the user, then determines the group to which the user belongs to begin replicating the information referenced in that group's subscriptions. For this reason, the Sync Server must be able to uniquely identify each group by name.

These steps are part of the larger task of creating a group. When you complete the steps for identifying the group, return to creating a group.
