The reason for a new download starting without a filter applied is probably something from the dataset definitions. Invantive Bridge Online does not itself trigger new downloads.
Given the query:
select t.*
from Simplicate.Timeline.TimelineLinkedMessages@spe t
where ([created] >= :w1)
limit 100
the filter is being included. Depending on the platform connected to and it’s capabilities, this filter can be forwarded to the platform (“server-side filtering”).
The actual call being made can be found in the view SessionIOs@DataDictionary after running and canceling the query on Simplicate before. See also What API calls did Invantive SQL actually perform?.
It is recommended to check that data dictionary view for the actual behaviour.
Probably based upon the text of the comment, created is not included in the filters sent to the Simplicate API-server.
In that case it is recommended to check whether there are any other filter criteria that are server-side filterable, and return a subset neede, encompassing all the data using the filter on created.
Please make sure that (specifically for Simplicate) the dates are specified as text (see Limit Data load from Simplicate on Invantive Cloud to Azure Data Factory - 6 van forums).
In case assistance is needed, it is recommended to use a short consult to get assistance.
