STATUS_CLOUD_FILE_CONNECTED_PROVIDER_ONLY
By default, placeholder-management operations in an active sync root belong to the connected sync provider. This prevents an unrelated local process from changing placeholder identity, hydration state, or other provider-owned data while callbacks are being serviced.
The status therefore identifies the caller and lifecycle state, not a broken cloud object. A helper process must either act through the provider's own service boundary or rely on an explicitly registered placeholder-management policy that permits the relevant operation.
Useful checks
- Confirm that the calling process is using the connection established for this exact sync root.
- Inspect the root's placeholder-management policy before introducing a separate utility or shell extension.
- Do not pass opaque connection or transfer keys between unrelated roots or provider instances.
Relevant documentation
- CF_SYNC_POLICIES defines default and unrestricted placeholder-management policies.
- CfConnectSyncRoot describes the provider connection and its connection key.
