Examples

The following example shows how to use this message. For this sample to work correctly, you must be connected to the server to get an IOrganizationService interface instance.

Output:

Duplicate accounts:

         DuplicateRule: 'Accounts with the same website'.

         Account: 'Contoso, Ltd' (567fa9fb-f38b-ee11-8179-000d3a993550)
         DuplicateRule: 'Accounts with the same website'.

Remarks

Learn to detect duplicate data using code Detect duplicate data using the SDK for .NET

For the Web API use the BulkDetectDuplicates action.

Usage

Pass an instance of this class to the Execute(OrganizationRequest) method, which returns an instance of the BulkDetectDuplicatesResponse class.

Privileges and Access Rights

To perform this action, the caller must have read privileges and access rights on the records that are specified in the request class.

Notes for Callers

The asynchronous system job detects multiple duplicate records and logs them as duplicate records by using the DuplicateRecord table. Before you use this message, set the EntityMetadata.IsDuplicateDetectionEnabled property for an table to true and publish all duplicate rules (duplicate detection rules) for a table.

Constructors

BulkDetectDuplicatesRequest()

Initializes a new instance of the BulkDetectDuplicatesRequest class.
