Configuration Options

Defines which subset of the previous node’s result is evaluated for emptiness.

Setting
Required
Description

Default

Yes

Uses the default output of the previous node

All

No

Evaluates all records, regardless of change status.

New

No

Evaluates only records that did not exist in the previous comparison run.

Changed

No

Evaluates only records that existed before but have changed

Deleted

No

Evaluates only records that existed before but are no longer present.

New or changed

No

Evaluates records that are either new or modified. This is the most common option for incremental processing

New, Changed or Deleted

No

Evaluates any type of difference detected

Unchanged

No

Evaluates records that are identical to the previous run


Usage

The Not Empty node is most commonly placed directly after a Compare node to prevent downstream processing when no relevant changes are detected.


Tips & Best Practices

  • Use Input result = New or Changed for standard incremental dataflows.

  • Avoid using Unchanged unless explicitly validating stable datasets.
