Users must add credentials for Gainsight PX and Zendesk in AutoSync, not in the IIP or AutoSync Manager.
Integrations with Zendesk as a source and Google BigQuery as a destination may fail to load records when using the SCD2 load type.
Data pipelines with Oracle as the source and Snowflake as the destination incorrectly report the number of can miss new and updated records when using the Incremental load type. For example, when a record is added, the details show that it was added and updated. The issue occurs because Oracle has the capability to store timestamps with precision to nanoseconds (by default, precision is microseconds), but AutoSync timestamps are limited to millisecond precision. Incremental loads depend on the timestamp, and if a record update occurs only nanoseconds after the previous update, AutoSync does not recognize it as an update.This is due to a difference in precision between Oracle and AutoSync timestamps.

We plan to upgrade the Oracle Snap Pack to use the latest 19c JDBC JAR file (19.1920.0.0 as of November 8, 2023).
Pipelines that use the default JDBC driver in the Oracle server accounts might be impacted after the driver upgrade because the latest driver is backward-incompatible. We will soon communicate how to reconfigure to prevent accounts from being impacted.
Pipelines that do not use the default driver (bundled with the Oracle Snap Pack) are not impacted.
