New Features
Fuzzy Matching
We are thrilled to announce Fuzzy match support, which allows for approximate matching and returns a match score, became generally available (GA) yesterday. You can now find records that are similar but not exact matches - so "Jon Smith" can match "John Smyth", and "Robert" can match "Bob". Fuzzy Match is available in Dedupe, Lookup, and Data Studio filters. This unlocks better duplicate detection, more forgiving lookups, and richer search experiences for messy, real-world data.

Private GCP Deployment
Syncari now supports private deployments within your own Google Cloud Platform (GCP) Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). This option is designed for enterprise customers who require their Syncari instance to run entirely within their own cloud infrastructure with no data leaving their environment. With a GCP VPC deployment, Syncari is provisioned directly into your GCP project, giving you full control over networking, security, and data residency. GCP VPC deployment is available as an enterprise option. To explore whether this is right for your organization, reach out to us at support@syncari.com and our team will guide you through the process.
Import Data Model
You can now bulk-import your data model directly into Schema Studio using a JSON or CSV file. Define your entities, fields, and relationships in a structured file and upload it to create your entire schema in one step - no more building entities one at a time. Imported entities are created as drafts so you can review
the structure before publishing, or choose to publish immediately on import. The importer validates for duplicates, enforces API name rules, and automatically wires up cross-entity relationships defined in the file. This is especially useful when migrating an existing data model into Syncari or bootstrapping a new
project from a predefined schema template.
Dataset support in QuickStart
QuickStart now carries Basic and SQL datasets across instances when they are used in pipelines as sources or via the Lookup function. During installation, if Insights is not enabled on the target instance, the install will error out with a clear message rather than silently skipping datasets. If a dataset with the same name already exists on the target, you are given the option to reuse it or overwrite it. If no matching dataset exists, QuickStart creates it automatically and validates it before completing the install - for SQL datasets, the schema name is updated to match the target environment. If dataset validation fails, the error is surfaced directly in the install flow so you know exactly what to fix.
Watermark support for Dataset
Datasets now support incremental syncs via watermark filtering. When you select a date or datetime column as the watermark field on a dataset, Syncari uses it to filter rows by a time window during each sync - fetching only records that changed since the last run rather than doing a full scan every time. If no watermark column is explicitly chosen, Syncari falls back to a synthetic watermark field (syncariDefinedUpdatedAt) that it manages automatically, ensuring all datasets have a baseline for incremental tracking. The watermark value is extracted from each row and used to advance the sync window forward on successive runs.
APIs to support User Management
The Role API allows you to programmatically manage custom roles and control role assignments for users within a Syncari subscription. All endpoints require a valid API token obtained via the OAuth client credentials flow. We now also have apis to activate / deactivate users. Read more here.
