Good day all,

Is there a way to stop duplicate entities from being created on a specific case? For example, I am using the exchange connector and creating an entity per discovered URL. I'm looking at a case now that has 20+ URLs but really only 5 unique URLs.

Hey, @John DePalma ! I think I actually have a pretty good strategy for these types of things using custom lists to solve the problem! I believe that @ShakedTal and @Tom Fridman are working on getting an article published on this soon, but a more lengthy explanation can be found here:

Articles inspired me to write a new action that takes in Entities, (selecting All URLs for my case) and outputs a json of deduped entities.
Then re-wrote an action to take my json instead of Entities.

Happy with the outcome
