new-featureEnabled scheduled data sync on 24 list actions — parks, alerts, events, articles, people, places, news releases, lesson plans, activities, things to do, topics, amenities, campgrounds, visitor centers, parking lots, galleries, videos, webcams, tours, road events, fees and passes, passport stamp locations and parks by activity or topic — so these collections can be kept in sync and read without calling the National Park Service on every request. Each syncs by full refresh, because the NPS API exposes no updated-since filter on any endpoint. List Audio is excluded, as NPS truncates its responses for records with very large embedded transcripts, which would leave a sync incomplete.
