How to setup REAL synchronisation with Cloud Sync Task ?

I'm trying setting up a Cloud Sync Task.

When I hover around the help button on the 'Transfer Mode', I see the following text:

"SYNC: Files on the destination are changed to match those on the source. If a file does not exist on the source, it is also deleted from the destination."

Automatically deleting a file if it does not exist on the source, does not sounds like synchronisation to me.

Example: When I work remotely and create a file in my Dropbox account, and a co-worker at the office create a file on TrueNAS, I expect both files to be on both the Dropbox as the TrueNAS file system (after synchronisation).

I'm anxious to use the Cloud Sync Task before I know what exactly happens. Or what is the proper way to set TrueNAS, so it acts as true synchronisation?

It's a true one-way synchronisation. The destination is made to look exactly as the source.
There is no two-way synchronisation feature in TrueNAS.
