Notes sync to MS OneNote no longer organized properly

Hi Boox team and community - I recently got the Boox Nova 2 and really happy with it. 

One issue I've had with it is in syncing notes to Microsoft OneNote. 

On the original firmware (i.e. prior to 2.3) the Note app in Nova 2 synced to a OneNote Notebook called Nova2-Note. This notebook had the same hierarchy across both - a folder on Nova 2 Notes corresponded to a section in OneNote and individual pages were in the same folder/section. 

From firmware 2.3, Nova 2 syncs to a OneNote notebook called Nova2-Notepads. Each note that syncs is saved as it's own section in OneNote so I now have dozens of sections instead of a few sections with many pages. 

Wanted to confirm whether this is a known issue and any potential fix? I sent a help request in the OS but haven't heard back. 

 

Thanks

  Has this been fixed?

  I'm interested in purchasing a Max3 for myself and then several employees if OneNote integration/sync works properly.

  thanks

  Hi mate - hasn't been fixed to this point, I sent a followup to Boox and response was that file sync is supported but not folder sync; it worked perfectly in a prior update and was a great feature so would be great to see it return.

   

  Currently what you would see in OneNote is a long list of section tabs with each individual page vs. having pages organized in the same notebooks/sections as you have on the Boox device - it works fine if you just need to archive the pages in OneNote but not great if you want to keep them organized in any real way.

  Is this problem solved yet? It really is un-useable the way notes currently organises in one note.

  If it was present in previous versions then should be easy to restore functionality

  Hi - checking in on this, any planned changes to OneNote integration? Have upgraded to firmware 3.1 and a lot of great features, would love to see this go back to the way it worked previously with notes in OneNote showing grouped under the correct sections.
