###Purpose The removal of "versions" in Backendless 4 menas that having dev/staging/live environments will require multiple apps. As a result, it is critical to be able to easily compare and sync schema and permissions. The purpose of this utility is to provide an easy mechanism to do just that. #####Caution: SYNC warns and prompts before deletions or updates, but is destructive. Ensure you have backups before performing sync operations!
