The Guardian API Microsoft SQL Server

AI-first ETL from The Guardian API into Microsoft SQL Server. Governed entities, incremental sync, typed landing tables.

How Datrise loads The Guardian API into Microsoft SQL Server

Datrise syncs The Guardian API's records, events, and configuration objects into Microsoft SQL Server as a typed table per source entity. Flexible or custom fields land in NVARCHAR(MAX) JSON columns, and timestamps such as created, updated, and status changes are typed as datetime2.

Sync is incremental: Datrise uses a watermark on updated-at, applied with a MERGE statement, so re-runs update only what changed. Optional partitioned tables on a date partition function. SQL Server defaults to a case-insensitive collation, so Datrise preserves original casing in a metadata column to avoid silent key collisions.

Ideal for Microsoft-stack analytics and Power BI Import models.

How does the The Guardian API to Microsoft SQL Server sync stay up to date?

It runs incrementally — Datrise uses a watermark on updated-at, applied with a MERGE statement.
