Remarks
An identity is temporary if the External Item is created on offline data cache, but has not been committed to the external system yet. When this property is true, this identity or External Item which has this identity should not be used with operation modes with online CacheUsage or other operations that work directly against the external system. The true value also indicates that this External Item or identity can only be used on the Metadata Store it is obtained from, and is incompatible with other Metadata Stores or computers.
