Swan Retail System - pagination update timestamp response script

Introduction

Where required, Swan Retail System endpoints are paginated based on the amended date for items, so subsequent queries start from the amended date of the last item returned.

For this to work as required, we use a response script to add 5 milliseconds to the time stamp for last items. To implement this you must:

• Install the Swan Pagination Update Timestamp response script from the Patchworks marketplace.

• Apply this script to any process flow connector shapes where the Swan Retail System connector is used with a paginated endpoint.
