### Performing a 'one-way' download synchronisation with Microsoft OneDrive
In some cases, it may be desirable to 'download only' from Microsoft OneDrive. To do this, use the following command:

onedrive --sync --upload-only
```
**Important Points:**
- The 'upload only' mode operates independently of OneDrive's online content. It doesn't check or sync with what's already stored on OneDrive. It only uploads data from the local client.
- If a local file or folder that was previously synchronised with Microsoft OneDrive is now missing locally, it will be deleted from OneDrive during this operation.

**Understanding both Commands:**
- `--upload-only`: This command will only upload local changes to OneDrive. These changes can include additions, modifications, moves, and deletions of files and folders.
- `--no-remote-delete`: Adding this command prevents the deletion of any items on OneDrive, even if they're deleted locally. This creates a one-way archive on OneDrive where files are only added and never removed.

### Performing a selective synchronisation via 'sync_list' file
Selective synchronisation allows you to sync only specific files and directories.
