DisableFeedTrackingHeader
The DisableFeedTrackingHeader header specifies whether the changes made in the current call are tracked in feeds. A user can subscribe to a record or to another user. Changes to the record and updates from the users are displayed in the Chatter feed on the user's home page, which is a useful way to stay up-to-date with other users and with changes made to records in Salesforce.
Use this header if you want to process a large number of records without tracking the changes in various feeds related to the records. This header is available if the Chatter feature is enabled for your organization. For more information on Chatter, see “Chatter Overview” in the Salesforce online help.
