# Sync

Brief Intro

Sync action allows users to sync the data that is recorded in the system so that it reaches the server and the data is secured.

## Using Sync 

Before going into the field, the user needs to log into the application every day, which will initiate an automatic sync process. For manual sync, there is a "Sync Data" button on the home screen, which allows the user to sync data according to his/her convenience. At the bottom of the screen, there is a card that shows the message “Data unsynced” along with the number of records unsynced.

When the user clicks on the ‘Sync’ button, the sync action starts along with an overlay showing “Sync in Progress” over the home page. The user cannot perform any other action until the sync is complete or there is some error.

### Sync Status&#x20;

Once the data is synced, it will show a popup, stating “Data Synced” along with a ‘Close’ button at the bottom. When the user clicks on 'Close', it navigates him/her to the home screen.

If the data is not synced due to any error, it will show a popup stating “Sync Failed” with two buttons below it:&#x20;

1. Retry: If the user wants to retry syncing the data.&#x20;
2. Close: Clicking on this will navigate the user back to the home screen.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.digit.org/health/v1.5/hcm-product-suite/health-products/digit-hcm-app/user-manual/support-functions/sync.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
