OneIdentity and SCIM Connector with Scope search accepts and applies a filter, but it continues to fetch all data. How to really perform a filtered data fetch?

Question

Hello Experts, 
 
 I'm doing an integration with OneIdentity with SCIM Connector x Starling Connect x SuccessFactors. 
 Everything seems to be working fine. I'm trying to include a filter in the "Scope" so that I can do quick tests, I want to start the sync only for the result of my filter, so that I have quick synchronization. A Full sync takes hours to finish, no good for testing. 
 So, I have set in "Scope" and "System Filter" a filter, according to SCIM standards. I know it works fine because I can see in the Starling Connect log that this filter was applied in the URL and the return was OK. Also, I used PostMan to validate the filter, and everything is fine. 
 What happen is that after the calling the filtered request, it simply continues doing and entire synchronization, when I expect it to stop after receiving the filtered result. How can I effectivelly make OneIdentity/SCIM connector only perform a Synchronization over the filter I have specified?

Hello Leonilson, 
 You would need to define a "System Filter". Please note that we only support specific attributes for each endpoint. 
 Please take a look at our documentation . Specifically the sections: 
 
 Support for Filter Condition 
 List of Attributes for Filter Condition 
 
 Also please be sure to disable the local cache in the connection configuration. 
 I would like to hear more about you project. Please contact me directly.

Hello Ronald, 
 We do not support Filtering on all Connectors. If the required Filter is not available for the Connector of your choice, please reach out to us and we will try to accommodate the request.
