Reload a Connector Schema Config
Reloads the connector schema config for an existing connector within your Fivetran account.
NOTE: This method reloads the full schema from the connector's data source. It may take a long time to complete the request. The method execution speed depends on the schema size and the number of databases, tables and columns. To retrieve the connector schema config without reload, use the Retrieve a Connector Schema Config endpoint.
The response contains only the difference between your selections and the schema config. The schema config includes schemas, tables, and columns. If you have not specified any schema configurations that differ from the default, the response will consist of only the top schema level. For more information, see also the Connector Schema config tutorial.

Request
Specifies whether all schemas and tables will be enabled or disabled in the standard config. By specifying the exclude_mode parameter value, you can enable or disable syncing for all schemas and tables when reloading the connector schema config.
When the default PRESERVE value is set, all selected schemas and tables in the standard config preserve their state.
When the EXCLUDE value is set, the columns that haven't been updated by user yet are not excluded from the sync. Such columns may be present in the source and not displayed in the response, but they are considered to be included in the sync by default. If you enable syncing of their table, then all of these columns from the source will be synced in the next sync cycle. See also Troubleshooting: How to enable syncs only for the columns you need.
