Retrieve or modify the entity startDate and endDate

Learn how to manage startDate and endDate values in an entity

Reltio determines the activeness of an entity or a relationship using the startDate and endDate system date attributes. For more information, see topic Using Activeness. Manage these date attributes with the Entities.

Overwrite endDate, startDate, and tags

Here's how the Entities determines whether to overwrite the endDate, startDate, and tags properties in an existing entity or relationship in the following ways:

  • If a property is present and its value isn't empty in the request, then the API overwrites the old value with the new value in the response.
  • If a property is present and its value isn't empty (empty string for endDate and startDate and an empty array for tags) in the reqeust, then the API removes this property from the existing entity and the response doesn't contain this property.
  • If a property is present but its value is empty in the incoming JSON, then the API doesn't change this property. The response contains the same value for this property as it did before the update.
