Hi everyone,
I’ve been using Hazel on my main Mac for years and absolutely love it. Recently, I started working with a second Mac, and I’d like to keep my Hazel rules consistent across both machines.

What’s the best way to organize and sync Hazel rules between multiple Macs? Should I rely on iCloud/Dropbox, or is there a recommended workflow to avoid conflicts and duplicates?

Would really appreciate any tips or experiences from others who’ve tried this.

Thanks in advance!

Check out the Rule Sync feature. You can have Hazel save rules for a folder into a file which is shared by multiple folders. If you put that file on iCloud/Dropbox, then you can access them from multiple machines.
