Hi @ sns , According to my research, it is possible sync SharePoint 2016 library to OneDrive. OneDrive client is required.

Hi Yanli JIang,

Thank you for the response.

Once I click on SYNC option it is showing below window.

and If i click on SYNC Now, nothing is happening

If I click on "Get he One Drive for Business app that is right for me" it is taking MS article

Please suggest what to do here,

DO I need to install One Drive for Business 64 Bit in my machine? Please confirm,

If so which credential I should I use, should I use same credentials which I am using for SHarePoint library?

Hi sns ,

As I said, you do need to use the OneDrive client, so you need to install One Drive for Business 64 Bit in my machine. And the credentials, as far as I know, are consistent with sharepoint, you can give it a try.

Hi Yanli Jian,

Thank you for the follow up.

One last question, at a time can not we use both OneDrive for SharePoint online and Onprem?
