Auto Sync method allows you to sync all your newly created Procore Projects to the SharePoint location automatically.

Please note that if you wish to disable auto sync you will need to navigate to this tab again (Configuration- Auto Sync) and remove the checkbox to disable Auto Sync and then click on Save configuration button.

If you do not wish to enable Auto Sync you can simply select the Project location in SharePoint and then select the existing projects to sync to that location through "Show Advance Configuration Options".
