From 94e8e5c9e9b64c8fac26f86d3a1c8bf88f3f0e7f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Kai (OpenClaw)" Date: Thu, 26 Feb 2026 18:47:02 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] docs: recommend google_photos_album_name to separate DMAF uploads When native Google Photos backup and DMAF both upload the same photo, Google Photos won't auto-deduplicate them (WA compression changes bytes). Setting an album name keeps DMAF face-matched uploads clearly separated from the main camera library. --- config.cloud.example.yaml | 6 +++++- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/config.cloud.example.yaml b/config.cloud.example.yaml index 2e0dd61..ad12e51 100644 --- a/config.cloud.example.yaml +++ b/config.cloud.example.yaml @@ -9,7 +9,11 @@ watch_dirs: - "gs://your-project-whatsapp-media" # Optional: Google Photos album to upload to (null = library root) -google_photos_album_name: null # "Family - Auto WhatsApp Imports" +# Recommended: set an album name to separate DMAF face-matched uploads from +# your main camera-roll library.
