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

Awesome! Thanks much.
@Cyrus Robinson
I'll give those articles a gander in the meantime



@John DePalma
, glad to help. I'm continually impressed by the capabilities and solutions that folks in this community come up with, so I'm always excited whenever I have some way to contribute!



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
