# Faker
## Sync overview
The Faker source generates sample data using the python [`faker`](https://faker.readthedocs.io/) package. Specifically, we generate data that looks like an e-commerce company's `users` table with the [`faker.profile()`](https://faker.readthedocs.io/en/master/providers/faker.providers.profile.html) method.
### Output schema
Only `Users` is supported.
### Data type mapping
Native Airbyte types (string, number, date, etc)
### Features
| Feature | Supported?\(Yes/No\) | Notes |
| :---------------- | :------------------- | :---- |
| Full Refresh Sync | Yes | |
| Incremental Sync | Yes | |
| Namespaces | No | |
Of note, if you choose `Incremental Sync`, state will be maintained between syncs, and once you hit `count` records, no new records will be added.
You can choose a specific `seed` (integer) as an option for this connector which will guarantee that the same fake records are generated each time. Otherwise, random data will be created on each subsequent sync.
