You can do so by choosing how the '''Cut Off Date''' is calculated. | # If using the '''Live (with archive)''' [[Archive Types|'''archive types''']], you can also configure whether to archive old historical data.

# | # If using the '''Live (with archive)''' [[Archive Types|'''archive types''']], you can also configure whether OdataLink polls for changes. | ||
#: ''' | #: '''Turning Polling On''' will allow OdataLink to poll of changes to provide live data in the most optimal manner. | ||
#: ''' | #: Set the '''Sensitivity''' in months to control the date range used when polling. | ||
#: ''' | #: You can also configure OdataLink to force a full refresh every so often. While we do not recommend using this option, it is provided for specific fringe cases. | ||
#: For more on information on polling, see [[Configure OdataLink to poll for changes]]. | |||
# If using the '''Live (with archive)''' [[Archive Types|'''archive types''']], you can also turn on the '''Developer''' option. | |||
#: When the '''Developer''' option is turned on, it informs OdataLink that you are in the midst of building you integration. OdataLink will then only make like calls if the archive data is over 8 hours old. | |||
# Choose the [[Archive Paging|'''Page By''']] option. | |||
#: '''Month''': OdataLink will page the data one month at a time. This may increase the performance for VERY LARGE data files. | |||
#: '''Quarter''': OdataLink will page the data one quarter at a time. This may increase the performance for LARGE data files. | |||
#: '''Year''': OdataLink will page the data one calendar year at a time. This option is provided for SMALLER data files. | |||
#: '''Default''': OdataLink will page the date as requested. This is provided for those that build more complex queries where you do not want OdataLink to page the data by date. | |||
