MB-260: Identify data sources that support incremental updates

For a data source to be able to support incremental updates, it needs to be a structured, relational database and it needs:

  • a primary key column that uniquely identifies records
  • a date/time column that indicates when the data was last updated

In Customer Insights – Data this is now:

  • Some sources in Power Query like (not a complete list)
    • Azure SQL Database
    • SQL Database
    • SAP Hana
    • Dataverse
  • Azure Data Lake Storage

If a data source supports incremental updates, you’ll can edit the incremental settings after you’ve transformed the data.
