Why Are All Rows Counted as MAR For File Connectors?

Question

Why are all my rows being counted as MAR?

Environment

All file connectors (except Google Sheets).

Answer

If a file is modified in any way, the complete file is re-synced. Therefore, all the rows are counted towards MAR if the file is modified in the new billing cycle.

Cause

In the new billing cycle, all rows that are modified on this day (deleted/inserted/updated) are charged. These rows can then be modified for the rest of the month without incurring any additional charges at all. However, they will keep getting counted on the new billing cycle if they are modified on that day. Learn more about updating data in our File Connectors documentation.
