I am going to extract data from Salesforce CRM and validate and load into BI solution. I know about ability to schedule data export via Data Loader. But I need API to initiate data export by ceratin criteria (e.g. customer data modified since particular time) and any criteria to detect the end of the process in case of asynchronous call.
And what are the limitations for this method?
Thanks in advance,
Kanan

Kanan,
If you are having a hard time finding the documentation for Salesforce APIs, I would strongly recommend that you find a consulting partner or use an existing App. Considering that your end goal is to integrate SAP, you are lucky that this is an extremely common use case.
