AccountShare and replication of accounts

Hi
we have an sqlite db on user's device and would like to replicate accounts available for a user. Initial replication is not a problem - just select all accounts via API. But after initial replication lot of changes may happen when user can lose and get access to accounts.So these changes should be replicated in local DB.
I understand that AccountShare object could be used to see which accounts are shared (had been shared) by a user, but this object doesn't support getUpdated/Deleted methods.

So how can i replicate changes in account sharing for a user?

Thanks!

Hi,

You can "poll for changes" in the data replication result. Please see this page for more details: http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api/index_Left.htm#CSHID=sforce_api_guidelines_datareplication.htm|StartTopic=Content%2Fsforce_api_guidelines_datareplication.htm|SkinName=webhelp

Thanks, but i don't see an answer here.
Polling for changes means usage of getUpdated/getDeleted methods, while AccountShare object doesn't support it.
So how can i know which accounts are available for a user anymore and which are newly shared?

Hi,

You can probably try to query the AccountShare object based on the created date and last modified date fields, something like greater than "the time you last did a getUpdated/getDeleted on Accounts".

There're no date fields in the object

Hi,

I can see LastModifiedById and LastModifiedDate fields with the exact last modified timestamp, available through Data Loader and Workbench. Hence, I'm guessing they should be available through the API as well. Can you please try?
