Yes, that is the intended purpose of the partial flag. If a connector does not return the full task data when running queries taskData.setPartial(true) should be invoked. This will cause the task list synchronization job to download the full task data by invoking connector.getTaskData() after completing query synchronization. I have added JavaDoc comments in cvs. Steffen
