Does the harvester support selective or incremental harvesting?

0

Yes. When an automatic harvest is conducted at regular intervals, the harvester checks if the data provider supports deleted records. If deletions are supported, a selective harvest is performed by requesting and synchronizing only those records that have been added, modified or deleted since the previous harvest. If deletions are not supported, a full harvest is performed by deleting all previously harvested records and harvesting all records from scratch. Similarly when a manual harvest is performed, clicking ‘New’ performs a selective harvest while clicking ‘All’ deletes all previously harvested files and performs a full harvest from scratch.
