How Is the Fivetran State Handled?

Question

When the Fivetran state is empty and AWS Lambda returns hasMore = true, will Fivetran call the Lambda function and continue to call it indefinitely?

Environment

Connector: AWS Lambda

Answer

• If hasMore = true, Fivetran will call the Lambda Function immediately and will continue to call until hasMore = false is received.
• If hasMore = false, Fivetran will not call the Lambda Function until the next sync.

Notes

hasMore is an indicator for Fivetran to make a follow-up call for fetching the next set of data. Fivetran makes repeated calls until it receives hasMore = false. If the connector continuously runs for six hours, it will reschedule and save intermediate progress.
