  • Merchant last_update_timestamp changes when any merchant field is updated
  • Merchant IDs are unique across all V5 incrementals, that is, a merchant ID should refer to only one merchant
    • Multiple merchant entries referring to a single merchant ID will be considered updates to a single merchant
  • Review last_update_timestamp changes when any review field is updated
  • Review IDs are unique across all V5 incrementals, that is, a review ID should refer to only one review
    • Multiple review entries for a single review ID will be considered updates to a single review
    • A review ID should be attached to only a single merchant ID
  • Creation timestamps do not change
  • Update times (that is, last_update_timestamp) must be the same as or after create times (that is, create_timestamp)
