Is it true that only updated users are brought into Okta from an integration when performing an incremental import?

The statement that only updated users are brought into Okta from an integration during an incremental import is accurate. In the context of data synchronization and integration processes, an incremental import specifically aims to streamline efficiency by only processing records that have undergone changes since the last import.

When performing an incremental import, the system checks for modifications—like changes in user attributes, group memberships, or status updates. Only those users whose data has been modified will be synchronized to ensure that the Okta environment reflects the most current information. This method helps to minimize unnecessary data transfers and reduces the load on the system, providing a more efficient operation.

In contrast, a full import would encompass all users, regardless of whether their data has been altered, which is not the case with incremental imports.
