Overview
The skip_destination_events job setting skips destination events for a job run. This setting is helpful for migrations to an empty destination platform where all destination events are known on the initial job run and are not needed for a delta job run. Therefore, you would enable this setting after the initial job run since additional destination events would not be required. The setting disables destination events for the next delta job run only, and then it resets. Therefore, if you want to disable destination events for additional delta job runs, you will need to patch the job again before each job run. Disabling the destination events can lessen rate limits and, therefore, migration delays for large migration projects.
This setting is available only through the REST API. To enable the skip_destination_events setting in the job, use the following PATCH call.
PATCH {{url}}v1/jobs/{{job}}?reset=skip_destination_events
