Test and publish

Verify a live data import

Check initial and incremental sync using known source records in a test organization.

Live initial and incremental sync

Use a test DevRev organization and external workspace with known fixtures. Connect through deployment or the live development server.

ScenarioObservable pass condition
ConnectionValid credential succeeds; invalid/revoked credential is rejected or yields an actionable failure
Sync-unit discoveryOnly accessible units are offered; IDs remain stable
Metadata and default mappingOffered fields/types match extraction; required DevRev fields resolve
Initial syncExpected objects, references, rich text and attachment contents appear once
Incremental syncOne known external change updates the existing target object; unrelated records are not duplicated
Empty incremental windowRun completes without creating or modifying unrelated objects
Interrupted/rate-limited syncRun resumes from durable progress and eventually completes without omissions
Selective extractionExcluded types stay excluded; included types still have valid required references
Permissions and teamsImported access and memberships match intended source visibility, where implemented
Time-scoped/historical syncObjects outside the requested window stay excluded; completion behavior is correct

Check expected values in DevRev, not only summary counts. Compare normalized artifacts with the metadata and final objects to distinguish extraction bugs from mapping bugs.
