The basic flow of developing a native application that consumes online OData versus offline OData is the same: registering devices and connecting users, performing create, update, delete operations on the entity uses the same APIs. The main differences involve:

• Initial database creation A database is created and populated during initialization that stores a subset of the OData endpoint data, based on your defining requests.
• Flush Updates from the back end. Includes support for conflict and error detection and resolution.
• Refresh Updates from the client.
