When using `offline editing`, QField will work on a local copy of the database in a GeoPackage, which will be synced by QFieldCloud to the original database. This is the best choice if the connection in the field is not reliable. Changes will only be visible to users once they sync to QFieldCloud. As a local copy is created, advanced PostGIS features will not be available on QField. Just like for regular GeoPackages, if you define relationships, it is recommended to use UUIDs instead of integer primary keys to avoid conflicts if multiple users create data at the same time.

## Enabling automatic pushing of changes to QFieldCloud
69
+
70
+
With this functionality, users and managers of QFieldCloud projects can enforce automatic pushing of pending changes to QField devices in the field, as well as specify the interval in between automated pushes. The functionality is activated through a project setting, allowing remote activation.
71
+
72
+
1.**Access Project Settings**: Navigate to the QField panel in the Project Settings dialog provided by the QFieldSync plugin.
73
+
74
+
2.**Enable Auto-Push**: Toggle the "Automatically push pending changes on the following interval" option and establish your preferred interval.
- **Real-Time Updates**: Ensures prompt synchronization of field data with the QFieldCloud project.
84
+
- **Streamlined Workflow**: Minimizes manual intervention and ensures surveyors do not need to worry about synchronization, helping them focus on data quality.
85
+
86
+
**Considerations:**
87
+
88
+
- **Network Stability**: Ensure stable internet connectivity for auto-push functionality.
89
+
- **Battery Optimization**: Implement strategies to mitigate battery consumption on QField devices during prolonged fieldwork.

## Create a project in an organization
92
+
93
+
How to create a project in an organization:
94
+
95
+
**Option 1: Directly convert your local project to an Organization QFieldCloud project:**
96
+
97
+
1. Follow the steps [configure your cloud project](#create-and-configure-your-cloud-project), until you get the "Project details".
98
+
99
+
2. Change the owner of the project to your Organization.
100
+
101
+
102
+
103
+
3. Click on "Create" to start the conversion and synchronization. When finish you will see the project is in your Organization in QFieldCloud.
104
+
105
+
106
+
107
+
!!! note
108
+
QField Sync 4.6 or newer is required for this functionality
109
+
110
+
**Option 2: Uploading directly to the organization:**
111
+
112
+
1. Select your organization.
113
+
114
+
115
+
116
+
2. Once you get into the organization, click on "Create a project".
147
+
148
+
10. You can verify that the files are present in the Organization project.
149
+
150
+
151
+
152
+
**Option 3: Moving the project from your own account to the Organizations:**
153
+
154
+
1. If you already have a project in QFieldCloud (refer to [configure your cloud project](#create-and-configure-your-cloud-project)). In the project, click on "Settings" and select "Transfer ownership of this project" to choose the desired Organization for the transfer.
155
+
156
+
157
+
158
+
2. A pop-up window will appear to confirm the transfer. To proceed, you will need to type "Here be dragons" and click "Transfer project".
## Activate email notifications for QFieldCloud changes
163
+
164
+

165
+
2. Navigate to the Notifications section. Here, you can customize the frequency of notifications you wish to receive at the email address registered with your account.

## Enhance your project with the "Optimized Packager"
185
+
186
+
We recommend to use the new "Optimized Packager" over the deprecated "QGIS Core Offline Editing" for all your projects. Set the packager under "Packaging Offliner" in the "Settings" tab of your project.
187
+
188
+
The "Optimized Packager" supports consolidating filtered layers of same datasource into a single offline layer, respecting distinct symbology but also using less storage. Here is an example to illustrate this feature:
189
+
190
+
**Example Configuration:**
191
+
192
+
-**Layer 1.1:**
193
+
- Data Source: `layers.gpkg`
194
+
- Table: `layer1`
195
+
- Filter: `id % 2 = 1`
196
+
197
+
-**Layer 1.2:**
198
+
- Data Source: `layers.gpkg`
199
+
- Table: `layer1`
200
+
- Filter: `id % 2 = 0`
201
+
202
+
**Result:**
203
+
204
+
For the new offliner:
205
+
- A single layer is generated in the offline geopackage, combining data from `layer1` with the specified filters.
206
+
207
+
For the old (QGIS) offliner:
208
+
- Two separate layers are created, each representing the filtered datasets:
This configuration must be set in the Settings page of each project in [QFieldCloud](https://app.qfield.cloud/).
216
+
217
+
## Connect to a custom QFieldCloud server in QField and QFieldSync
218
+
219
+
QField and QFieldSync connect to the QFieldCloud service on [app.qfield.cloud](https://app.qfield.cloud/) by default.
220
+
221
+
You can modify the default QFieldCloud server QField and QFieldSync connect to:
222
+
223
+
1. Open the login screen in QField or QFieldSync.
224
+
2. Double-tap on the Nyuki icon (the blue bee QFieldCloud logo).
225
+
3. This action will reveal a field where you can enter the preferred QFieldCloud server address.
226
+
4. Enter the details of the desired server in the provided field.
227
+
(Leaving the field empty will connect to the default QFieldCloud server at app.qfield.cloud.)
228
+
229
+

232
+
233
+
!!! Note
234
+
It's important to note that QFieldSync does not support the same cloud project in multiple QGIS profiles. As a recommendation use a single QGIS profile for your QFieldCloud projects to avoid synchronization issues.
