Usage

Use GetUpdated to get the IDs of individual objects that have been updated or created during the specified time for the specified object.

Basic Steps

  1. Call GetUpdated, passing in the object and time span for which to retrieve data.
  2. Iterate through the returned array of IDs. For each ID element in the array, call Retrieve to obtain the latest information you want from the associated object. Your client application must then take the appropriate action on the local data, such as inserting new rows or updating existing ones with the latest information.
  3. Optionally, the client application saves the request timestamp for future reference.
