Incremental Import feasibility with REST Connector in v2022

[karamchand]

We plan to use REST connector to import users from custom made Payroll/HR systems. Does it support incremental imports in v2022?

I see conflicting answers in the support documentation in https://saviynt.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/43000521736-rest-connector-guide.

The table under Supported Features says Incremental import is not supported for User Import. But further down it says the parameter maxUserUpdateDate was added.

I also want to know what is expected from source system to ensure incremental imports are possible into Saviynt.

As far as i know, Incremental Import is not supported by REST connector maxUserUpdateDate provides information from saviynt max(last) update date from users

Support for incremental user import using the maxUserUpdateDate binding variable in url. The maxUserUpdateDate binding variable is introduced in Release v5.5 SP2.

Below is what I could understand from the response. Please confirm if I understood you right.

1. Incremental user imports are not support with REST connector

2. maxUserUpdateDate is to be used when the users are fetched from Saviynt DB itself. Not from another source system.

yes
