Prefilter Azure Table Storage Data

Hi, I have data in Azure Table Storage that I'm attempting to use Incremental Refresh on when using the Azure Table Storage Connector. However, I've noticed that when using the connector all the data in my tables gets imported, which sometimes is causing me timeout issues, despite having subsequent filters on the Partition and Row Keys. I'd like to know if it's possible to pre-filter Azure Table Storage data on the Partition and Row Keys during the initial import. I've found this information on querying Table Storage but there is no option to apply a simple query via the Table Storage Connector. Thank you!

Hi @jhuamani 

After testing, you can consider to use api to filter, then select web connector,  you can refer to the following link.

And you can also refer to the following similar thread.
