Hi,

I'm trying to perform some synchronization between Shared Contacts and
an external source. In order to reduce unneeded requests, the update
is only performed if the shared contact data is older than the
external data. This information is obtained from the atom:updated
element. However, I observed that updating the shared contact does not
update the value in the atom:updated element. I should add that this
update does not change any field values (because the contact has been
updated with this data previously and the timestamp stayed the same).

I'm using a batch update, the returned batch status code is 200 but
the timestamp in the updated element does not change. The edit link
also does not change.

When is the updated timestamp on the contacts modified? Is it only
modified when a field value actually changes?

Thanks,
William
