Connector Specific Configuration Details

  1. Dynamics 365 FO (Dataverse via Synapse Link) connector has optional values such as Bronze Schema and Silver Schema

  2. Incremental extraction is supported in the connector. The incremental step has been optimized to identify the table partitions that could contain incremental data by comparing the watermark start date to the modified times of the files.

  3. An incremental extraction should use the sinkmodifiedon column as the watermark and the id and versionnumber columns as the candidate key.

  4. Occasionally, the extraction will fail while reading a CSV file. Previously, it was thought this was due to corrupt files, but further investigation shows that this happens most frequently on high-traffic tables meaning the problem is a simultaneous read/write. To approach this, the connector will attempt a second read of the source data after 20 seconds. This should mitigate but will not remove the problem entirely. Future optimization might attempt to identify when the files are actively being written.
