Exclude document files from iCloud sync?

[MrMo]

Hi

I turned on the new iCloud sync, so my Document folder is synced to iCloud.

How do I exclude files and folders - is that possible?

Right now MacOS is syncing my dropbox files to iCloud because they are stored in the Document folder. I want to exclude folders like this.

Thanks.

iCloud Drive is extremely limited. You have no exclude options, No selective sync etc. Dropbox is here to stay.
