*.ops_manager_ca_certificate

Each machine keeps its own copy of these.

*.public_api_key*.private_api_key*.access_token*.refresh_token*.standby_clusters_aws_access_key_id*.standby_clusters_aws_secret_access_key

Lifted into your secret store; the rest of the file syncs.

Only what the catalog names. A directory that syncs brings everything inside it except what is listed as excluded here.

Opens Otty and adds this tool to what it syncs

Opens otty://sync/add/mongocli. Otty ships with this catalog, so the link only has to name the tool — nothing is downloaded.

Every one of these is generated from the same rules as this page. None of them splits *.ops_manager_ca_certificate for you — that part is Otty’s own sync, or a template you write by hand.
