Abstract
A method, computer system, and/or computer program product shares state scope data among client devices in a cloud-based file synchronization service, where the client devices are intermittently connected to the cloud-based file synchronization service. In response to a first client device requesting a current version of shared state scope data from a second client device, the cloud-based file synchronization service transmits a request to the second client device for the updated shared state scope data. The updated shared state scope data is stored in the cloud-based file synchronization service, and then transmitted to the first client device.
