Blackmagic Design has issued an important update. Due to Google discontinuing its Google Drive sync support, Blackmagic Design will soon have to remove support from all Blackmagic Cloud Store products. It’s possible existing Google Drive syncs could still work, but they expect it to stop working at any time. Syncing with Blackmagic Cloud or Dropbox is recommended.

With Blackmagic Cloud you can setup a local cache of your Dropbox and Google Drive files. This makes working much faster because files are instantly available without needing to be loaded from the internet. Blackmagic Cloud Store will constantly work to stay in sync. You can also save space on your computer by moving cached Dropbox and Google Drive files to the Blackmagic Cloud Store so they are accessible to everyone on your local network. You can even sync multiple Blackmagic Cloud Stores via Dropbox and Google Drive so people in different geographic locations can collaborate without latency because everyone has a local copy of the files.

With Google Drive support being removed users will have to come up with alternative solutions.
