    incremental refresh can be triggered like a normal refresh, via schedule, on demand, or API.  

    What you also need to keep in mind is that incremental refresh is specific to a data source, not a dataset.

    What actually happens when you request a dataset refresh is that the engine (service or gateway) finds all the data sources in the dataset and then initiates independent refreshes of these data sources (for example on various gateway cluster members - by default in parallel, unless you told it not to.

     

    The only difference with incremental refresh is the number of partitions that is involved in the refresh.
