Object Duplicates

Objects with identical values in base fields are considered duplicates. Duplicate tracking for the selected object type allows you to:

  • View the total number of duplicate objects for the selected type
  • View duplicate values for each base field and objects duplicated by that criterion
  • Delete duplicate objects

Total Number of Duplicate Objects​

Above the table, you can see the number of duplicates found for the type selected in the Select type dropdown. If no duplicates exist for the selected type, this information is not shown.
