Is there a way to rebuild a connector to allow for partitioning?
I use several connectors that do not currently have partitioning capabilities. Is there a way to rebuild them to allow this capability? For example, Facebook, LinkedIn, etc do not have the merge option.

If a connector has a date selector in the connector settings then you can set it to update only the last X days and append that to the full history data in an ETL and deduplicate with an optional rank function to keep the most recent version of each unique record. A unique field, such as an ID, and a system mod stamp or other timestamp field to see when a record was updated is required.
Additionally, a full history update weekly is recommended to ensure data isn't missed.

Thanks. How would you set up an optional rank function? And for the weekly update that would be a separate ETL that runs once a week after this daily ETL?

In addition to my last question, what if there is no date selection option? Just Append or Replace?
