PicGo Cloud 2.5.0+

PicGo Cloud is PicGo's official cloud service, currently used for signing in and syncing PicGo configuration across devices.

Before you start

You must agree to the following before logging in:

• Privacy Policy
• Terms of Service

Open PicGo Cloud

1. In the main window sidebar, click PicGo Cloud.

Login

1. On the PicGo Cloud page, check the Terms of Service / Privacy Policy agreement.
2. Click Log in.

3. Complete the login in the browser window that opens. When it succeeds, the page shows a success message.

If the login flow is still running, click Cancel login to stop and try again.

After logging in, you can click Open PicGo Cloud to visit PicGo Cloud in your browser, or Log out to sign out.

Config sync

After you’re logged in:

1. Click Config Sync to start syncing.
2. Wait for the result message (success / warning / error).
3. If PicGo shows a restart prompt, choose Restart now to reload the app and apply the synced config, or Later to postpone.

PicGo Cloud keeps the latest 3 sync histories for recovery/rollback. You can view them after logging in at PicGo Cloud.

Encryption mode

Use the Encryption mode dropdown next to Config Sync:

• Auto: follow the last server-side encryption strategy (default is server-side encryption, SSE).
• Server: server-side encryption (SSE).
• E2E: end-to-end encryption. Enabling E2E shows a warning and requires you to keep your PIN safe. During sync, PicGo will prompt you to set or enter a PIN. Canceling the PIN prompt aborts the sync.

More details about encryption can be found in the PicGo Blog.

Conflict resolution

TIP

Most of the time, PicGo silently merges your remote settings without you lifting a finger. But if there's ever a conflict, it will ask you to decide how to handle it.

If a sync conflict is detected, PicGo opens a conflict resolver dialog:

• Choose Local or Cloud for each item.
• Use bulk actions to choose all Local / all Cloud or reset selections.
• Click Confirm & Sync after all items are selected, or Abort to stop.
