Sync to Microsoft OneDrive

Want your screenshots waiting for you in OneDrive? Here's how to have Stillio save them there automatically.

Automatically save screenshots to OneDrive

Stillio can save each screenshot to your OneDrive account the moment it is created. All it takes is connecting your Stillio account with OneDrive. Once you have, a "Stillio" folder appears in your OneDrive "Apps" folder.

Example: When you capture www.example.com in your Stillio account and sync it to OneDrive, the screenshot is saved like this, with the date and time in the file name:

Apps/Stillio/example.com/www-example-com-2024-05-07-10-30.png

If you capture multiple web pages from example.com, they all end up in the example.com folder.

Two steps get you there:

1. Connect to our OneDrive app.
2. Switch on syncing.

Interactive guide:

Connect to our OneDrive App

1. In your Stillio account, go to Settings > Apps.
2. On the OneDrive card, click Connect. You'll be taken to a Microsoft login page.
3. Sign in to the Microsoft account you use for OneDrive.
4. Review the permissions the Stillio app asks for and grant access if you're happy with them.

That's it, your OneDrive account is now linked to Stillio.

Switch on syncing

1. Go to Settings > Apps.
2. Find the OneDrive card.
3. Turn on the Active switch (see the image below).

From now on, new screenshots are saved to your OneDrive "Stillio" folder automatically.

Deactivating OneDrive

Changed your mind? Go to Settings > Apps, find the OneDrive card and turn the Active switch off. It turns gray, and syncing stops.

F.A.Q.

Can I change the filename and folder where screenshots are saved?

• Folder: The folder structure is predetermined and cannot be changed. Screenshots are always organized by domain within the "Stillio" folder.
• Filename: You can customize the first part of the filename by adding or editing the "Title" field in your Webpage Capture settings within Stillio. The timestamp (yyyy-mm-dd-hh-ss) at the end of the filename is automatically generated and cannot be altered.

How can I remove the Stillio app from OneDrive?

You can manage app permissions directly through your Microsoft account settings:

1. Go to Microsoft account's privacy page. If you have a Microsoft Business account, go to https://myapps.microsoft.com/.
2. Sign in if prompted.
3. Navigate to the "Apps and services" section.
4. Locate "Stillio" in the list of connected apps and choose to revoke its access.

Troubleshooting

My screenshots aren't being saved to OneDrive. What should I check?

• Authorization: Make sure your OneDrive account is connected and Stillio has the permissions it needs. If not, click Reauthorize on the OneDrive card.
• Storage Space: Verify that you have enough free storage space in both your OneDrive account and on your local device.
• Filename Length: Extremely long filenames can sometimes cause issues. Try shortening the "Title" field in your Webpage Capture settings within Stillio.
• OneDrive Limits: While OneDrive allows for a large number of files, there are limits to how many items can sync efficiently within a single folder. Exceeding these limits might disrupt the sync. Consider organizing frequently captured screenshots into subfolders or adjusting the capture frequency for certain web pages.

For optimum performance, we recommend syncing no more than a total of 300,000 files across your cloud storage. Performance issues can occur if you have more than 300,000 items, even if you are not syncing all items. Reference: Microsoft OneDrive Sync Limits.
