Hello

When writing data to a record data set only the last data ingested into the data will appear upon profile.

With the above scenario you are ingesting two /POST commands.

id, name, balance

post1 3333,joe,400

post2 3333, no value provided,500

The result of this entry upon profile will only contain id of 333 and balance of 500 as the name value has been updated with a value not present.

To keep the name value present between payload 1 and payload 2 you will need to enable upsert for the dataSet which data is being inserted.

Hi nshani1,As per above scenario at dataset level you are able to see the two records ingested1st record - 3333,joe,400 and2nd record - 3333,500 but at profile level you can able to see - 3333,joe,500So at profile level attribute data is overwrite so "joe" is not disappear from the profileI would suggest try to do small POC in local sandbox so you understand.
