Export an entity to file

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 5

Hi there

I have a custom entity and change tracking is enabled, I need to export this entity but I still get all the records, not the modified ones. I use the method exportToFile which exists in the class DMFEntityExporter, among these parameters, there is "DMFRefreshType" and I pass the param DMFRefreshType:: IncrementalPush, but nothing change. How can I resolve this pls? 

Thanks

    Hi, I believe Change Tracking and Incremental push is for BYOD mainly. It can be enabled for Non BYOD scenarios such as OData but not for export to File.

    To implement incremental push, system should know what was exported before and what is the Delta which is not feasible in files.

    Check this MS article on Change Tracking

    Hi Ping,

    Change tracking and Incremental push can be activated for export of data with available data format (e.g. Excel).

    You need to have a data export job with a entity that is activated for change tracking and will be exported in Incremental push mode.
