Scan
Scans up to 100 coverage updates. The since query parameter is inclusive, and the result list is ordered by updatedAt ascending.
**Polling Pattern:**
To continuously poll for updates without gaps:
1. Make your initial request with a `since` timestamp (e.g., `since=2020-01-01T13:00:00.000Z`)
2. The API returns up to 100 coverage records, sorted by `updated_at` ascending
3. Find the `updated_at` value from the last record in the response
4. Use that `updated_at` value as the `since` parameter in your next request
5. Repeat steps 2-4 to ingest updates until you receive an empty list
**Important Notes:**
- The `since` parameter is inclusive, so you may receive the last record from the previous batch again (you can deduplicate by ID and version)
- All coverage records include `updated_at`, `id`, `version`, `deactivated`, and `updating_user` fields for tracking changes
- Timestamps have millisecond resolution for precise ordering
