ContentSync Scripting Support

You can also use ContentSync within you Sketch scripts as of 8.3.0. The ContentSync API is accessed using ContentSync.API().

For example:

// This example will print all Content Versions of the currently selected ContentSync project.
ContentSync.API().versions((ok, data) => {
  if (ok) data.map((v) => console.log(v));
  if (!ok) console.log("Error: ", data);
});

The shape of each version is:

{
  "name": "Version 1",
  "syncable": true
}
