Can you please consider a new enhancement to support "upsert" function import coming from SAP SuccessFactors API?

},

},

Hi,
the UPSERT feature was new in OData spec version 4. This enh. request is basically subtask of issue #39.

Hi @phanak-sap ! Well, not sure if it’s part of V4 release, but it’s being used in V2 as Import Function, as you can see from metadata. Probably this is a part of SAP Success Factors API. The main difference is that method is POST for an Import Function, not a GET. So, if possible, please consider it as a V2 part.
It was already requested couple of years ago, see #136 - item 2.
