To keep the Nitro platform up to date, schedule the sync job that runs as a part of the intelligent sync connector. This can be done using the NAC:

Adding Objects to Allowlists for Intelligent Sync Connectors

In order to add objects to the scope of your intelligent sync connector, add them to the appropriate allowlist. Nitro has a list of core objects included for each Intelligent Sync Connector. Veeva CRM and Veeva Vault customers create and maintain their own objects in each platform. These objects can be included in the Intelligent Sync connector by creating a .yml file and uploading it as a part of the allowlist library.

The following Nitro Allowlist Object tables are available for reference:

Example

Copy 
my_custom_object__c.yml
name: my_custom_object__c
enabled: true
source: CRM
mappings:
- sourceSchema: CRM
targetSchema: STG
pattern: pt_crm_stg_incrementalextract__v
filter: where SystemModstamp > $[LMD]
- sourceSchema: STG
targetSchema: ODS
pattern: pt_crm_ods_ed_history__v
blocklistColumns:
- MayEdit
- Lock_vod__c
- createdBy
- lastModifiedBy
- LastViewedDate
- IsLocked
- LastReferencedDate

Do not include blocklistColumns fields in the Nitro database.

The filter mapping attribute is used to filter data outbound from the source, in this case, data coming from CRM. Include a fully qualified SOQL query where clause supported by the Salesforce.com BULK API as a filter.
