For each Brightspace Data Set, the full CSV continues to generate on a daily basis. The add-on provides additional CSV updates, produced on an hourly basis, containing the differences (diffs) of the data that has been updated or inserted in the previous hour. Each diff is designed to keep the data set up-to-date with minimal overhead, and reduce the time it takes to produce an up-to-date extract to maintain hourly data freshness (depending on the data freshness level the client's package entitles them to).

To address gaps in how data is generated for certain fields in Brightspace Data Sets, this release also introduces the ObjectId field to the Quiz Questions and Survey Questions data sets in the 1.3 release of the Brightspace Data Sets.
