Is there a way to pause and unpause all folders? I want to script it but I do not want to put individual folder names because the script will be shared between devices with different configurations.

You can pause them when starting by using the -paused
option. The other option is to edit the config via the REST interface - set the pause option on each, and POST it back.
Or pause all devices which will be of equivalent behaviour.
I’d use this.
Suppose I have 20 different folders of database backups with 1-4gb in each. I turn off my computer and go away for the weekend, and turn it back on on Monday morning. Syncthing starts syncing all the folders for a weekend’s worth of backups, but I urgently need the latest database from folder A and I don’t want to have to wait for everything else.
What I want to do is pause all folders except for A, sync folder A, and then unpause all the other folders once I’ve got A’s database to start working on. It’s a bit annoying doing each folder by hand.
I suggested it a while back: PR #3520 (comment) Not sure why it was eventually dismissed, kinda lost track of it…
Now it seems like there’s more requests for it though
So maybe it will be reconsidered.
It doesn’t look dismissed, it looks lost in a long thread about many things.
Well, then here we go
