To set the
date
as the cursor field from the response JSON for incremental sync in Airbyte, you need to define the cursor field in your connector's configuration. Based on the knowledge sources, here are the steps you can follow: 1. Define the Cursor Field: You need to specify the
date
field as the cursor field in your connector's configuration. This can be done by setting the
cursor_field
property. 2. Implement Getter and Setter for the Cursor: You need to implement the getter and setter methods for the cursor in your connector's code. This will allow you to manage the state of the cursor. Here is an example of how you can implement this in your connector:
Copy code
python @property def state(self) -> Mapping[str, Any]:     if getattr(self, '_cursor_value', None):         return {self.cursor_field: self._cursor_value}     else:         return {self.cursor_field: datetime.today().strftime('%Y-%m-%d')}  # Default to today's date if no cursor is set  @property def cursor_field(self) -> str:     """     Name of the field in the API response body used as cursor.     """     return "date"  @state.setter def state(self, value: Mapping[str, Any]):     self._cursor_value = value[self.cursor_field]
3. Configure Incremental Sync: In the Airbyte UI, you need to select the incremental sync mode and specify the
date
field as the cursor field. This can be done in the sync settings dropdown. For more details on configuring incremental sync, you can refer to the [Airbyte documentation on incremental sync with user-defined cursor](https://docs.airbyte.com/using-airbyte/core-concepts/sync-modes/incremental-append#user-defined-cursor). By following these steps, you can set the
date
field as the cursor for incremental sync in your Airbyte connector. If you need more technical details about the configuration data model, you can refer to the [Airbyte protocol documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/understanding-airbyte/airbyte-protocol#catalog).

@kapa.ai Actually, the date is coming inside the granularity array. I am trying to set the
date
field in Airbyte builder

To set the
date
field as the cursor for incremental sync in Airbyte when the
date
is inside an array (like the
granularity
array in your JSON), you can use the Airbyte Low-Code Connector Builder to configure this. Here’s how you can do it: 1. Define the Cursor Field in the Configuration: You need to specify the
date
field as the cursor field in your connector's configuration. Since the
date
is nested inside the
granularity
array, you will need to handle this in the configuration. 2. Use the Declarative Stream Configuration: You can use the
DeclarativeStream
configuration to set up the incremental sync with the
date
field as the cursor. Here is an example configuration for the `DeclarativeStream`:
Copy code
yaml incremental_sync:   type: DatetimeBasedCursor   cursor_field: "date"   datetime_format: "%Y-%m-%d"   cursor_granularity: "P1D"   start_datetime:     datetime: "{{ config['start_date'] }}"     datetime_format: "%Y-%m-%d"   end_datetime:     datetime: "{{ today_utc() }}"     datetime_format: "%Y-%m-%d"   step: "P1D"   start_time_option:     field_name: "start_date"     inject_into: "request_parameter"   end_time_option:     field_name: "end_date"     inject_into: "request_parameter"
3. Handle Nested Arrays: Since the
date
field is inside the
granularity
array, you need to ensure that your connector can extract the
date
from each element in the array. This might involve writing custom logic in your connector to iterate over the array and extract the
date
field. Here is an example of how you might handle this in Python:
Copy code
python def parse_response(response: dict) -> List[dict]:     records = []     for item in response.get("granularity", []):         record = {             "date": item.get("date"),             "impressions": item.get("impressions"),             "taps": item.get("taps"),             # Add other fields as needed         }         records.append(record)     return records
4. Configure the Connector in Airbyte: In the Airbyte UI, configure the source connector to use the
date
field as the cursor. This can be done in the sync settings dropdown. For more details on configuring incremental sync, you can refer to the [Airbyte documentation on incremental sync with user-defined cursor](https://docs.airbyte.com/using-airbyte/core-concepts/sync-modes/incremental-append#user-defined-cursor). By following these steps, you can set the
date
field as the cursor for incremental sync in your Airbyte connector, even when the
date
is nested inside an array. If you need more technical details about the configuration data model, you can refer to the [Airbyte protocol documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/understanding-airbyte/airbyte-protocol#catalog).
