# Enable connected content autosync system property {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Zurich  
Updated July 31, 2025  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Content updates are automatically synced when you enable the autosync system property.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin

## About this task

By enabling this property, you can gain visibility into new and outdated content and manage content life cycle through automation for performance improvement.  
Note:  
The connected content autosync system property is available from Zurich and above.

* Auto-sync content additions and removals on topic pages in bulk.
* Eliminate the need to manually update the content additions and deletions. For more information, see [Run the scheduled job for content association](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/7w6Du0W1LfdWc~OhnrqG8g "Change the scheduled job frequency, as required, to ensure that the notification of new content availability to add to the topic pages is regular and uninterrupted.").

## Procedure

1. In the Navigation filter, enter <kbd class="ph userinput">sys_properties.list</kbd>.  
   The entire list of properties in the System Properties \[sys_properties\] table appears.
2. Search for the <kbd class="ph userinput">Taxonomy.category.content_auto_sync</kbd> property and open.
3. Set the property value to true.  
   Note:  
   Default value is false.

## Result

The system property syncs updates automatically.

However, to check the updated content in categories manually, see [Check for updated content in categories](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/XCUJCJxtv1H8cvPCv0bv1A "Track and manage the updated content in categories for better visibility, content maintenance, and performance.").
