Incremental Extract Method

Rivery manages the increment for your rivers, and knows how to fetch an incremental data from the source, using the best practices of the source. In Chargify, there are a couple of options to check in order to pull data incrementally:

  • Increment Field - Every resource may run over some fields to base its incremental data pulling. Therefore, when you choose a resource, the Incremental Field list may change accordingly.

  • After choosing Incremental Field, the increment type depends on the data type of the chosen field. For example, the Created_At incremental field is typed as DateTime, so there is a need to choose the Date Range.

    When not setting an End Date, Rivery will assume the present date of the run as the end date.

    Please define the Start Date in order to run the river. Moreover, Rivery will proceed to the next end date, as the next Start Date, in the next run.

  • Interval Chunks - Rivery can run over the increment using chunks, in order to make the loading more efficient and more precise. Your options are:

    • Don't Split - Rivery will pull the data from the chosen start date to the end date in one bulk.
    • Daily - The run will be chunked daily from the start to end date.
    • Monthly - The run will be chunked monthly from the start to end date.
    • Yearly (Less Recommended) - The run will be chunked yearly from the start to end date.
