# allowsExcludingFromSync

A value indicating that the user can exclude the item from sync operations.

## Declaration

```swift
static var allowsExcludingFromSync: NSFileProviderItemCapabilities { get }
```

## Discussion

Discussion The user can choose to exclude the item from syncs (for example, in Finder’s user interface). If the user excludes an item, the system stops monitoring changes for the item and its children, and removes the item from the file provider.
