Does Azure Data Factory support incremental data loading from an API? How can I implement this?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Yes, Azure Data Factory does support incremental data loading from an API.
Steps to Implement Incremental Data Loading from an API
Create a Data Factory Instance:Start by creating a new Azure Data Factory instance in the Azure portal.
Set Up a Pipeline:Create a new pipeline within your Data Factory.
Use Web Activity:
Add a Web Activity to your pipeline. This activity will call the REST API.
Pass parameters to the API, such as the last modified date or a watermark, which will help you fetch only the new or updated records since the last load.
Implement Incremental Logic:
You can use an Until Activity to loop through the API responses until all data is loaded. This is useful if the API returns data in pages.
Store Data Temporarily:
Consider loading the data into a temporary or staging table first. This allows you to perform any necessary transformations or checks before merging it into your main table.
Merge Data:
Finally, use a Copy Activity or a stored procedure to merge the new data from the staging table into your main table based on your incremental logic.
