A [feature request](https://github.com/Martchus/syncthingtray/issues/140) for considering conflicts came up. So now I’m wondering whether Syncthing provides an API to query whether a folder has conflicting files (and whether there’s a corresponding event). I’ve already seen @canton7 's reply in [conflict notification via REST API - #7 by canton7](https://forum.syncthing.net/t/conflict-notification-via-rest-api/9255/7) but I don’t know which exact events (from the [documentation](https://docs.syncthing.net/dev/events.html)) these correspond to. It also doesn’t look like LocalChangeDetected/RemoteChangeDetected events would be of help. And besides just relying on events it would also be necessary to know the whether there’s a conflict initially. Note that I’d personally would like to refrain from messing with the file system on GUI-level. The GUI might run with different permissions than the backend or on a completely different machine so it just wouldn’t make much sense generally. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.syncthing.net/t/yet-another-syncthing-tray/8502)._
