What To Expect
- Creating a sync job returns quickly, even for large folders. Quota and file-size checks run when the job launches.
- Scheduled jobs depend on provider auth state plus Fly.io worker availability.
- Multi-step jobs can fail because of path collisions, provider path rules, or expired credentials.
- Logs and activity records are the fastest way to diagnose unexpected behavior.
