If you use different IntelliJ-based IDEs associated with the same user account, your settings will be automatically synced. The settings are stored in the cloud attached to the user’s JetBrains Account. How does the new Settings Sync plugin work? We are now communicating with plugin developers about the actions required from their side. As for the third-party plugin settings, not all of them will be transferred seamlessly, as this is dependent on the third-party vendors. By default, the plugins themselves will be synchronized and installed silently. The new Settings Sync plugin is capable of syncing all shareable settings from the platform, bundled plugins, and third-party plugins. But even if you have only one IDE instance, Settings Sync is still valuable as a backup solution, since it will allow you to automatically restore all your settings when you set up a new machine from scratch. After changing a color scheme or a keymap on one machine, you naturally want to see the same setup on the second machine. Settings synchronization is essential when you use your IntelliJ-based IDE on two or more computers. It covers all of the basic prerequisites for settings synchronization and is now available in both IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition and Ultimate. To avoid the confusion caused by having two similar bundled plugins we’ve merged their feature sets into a single solution – the new Settings Sync plugin.
In this EAP build, we introduce a reworked solution to synchronize your custom user settings.įor quite a long time, there were two plugins that existed in parallel and featured intersecting functionality – IDE Settings Sync and Settings Repository.
