Update:

After about 90 mins, folders seem to have synced bidirectionally, but not their content. Will that be another 90 mins? Looks I need to access the synchronisation check frequency, so can anyone advise where that is configured?

Thanks

  Not sure what you mean by "history" button.
  
  But in any case it seems to be working now. It's possible there was a large backlog of synchronisation to do, as we had only just set this up.
  
  However it seems the ReadyNAS Google Drive sync does not sync google documents ( *.gdoc *.gsheet etc) Can you confirm that, please.
  
  But with MS Office documents (*.docx *.xlsx etc) it works fine.
  
  So why would ReadyNAS Google Drive sync some file types and not others?
  
  Thanks
