Which Vlocity DataRaptor map item property helps prevent duplicates from being created?

• A. Upsert
• B. Default Value
• C. Lookup Object
• D. Link Creation Field

Answer: (A)

Upsert is the operation that uses a unique identifier (external ID) to locate an existing Salesforce record and update it; if no match exists, it creates a new one. This idempotent behavior prevents duplicates because sending the same data again will find the existing record instead of creating another. In DataRaptor map items, choosing Upsert makes the tool check for a record with the specified external ID; if found, it updates fields; if not, it creates a new record. Default Value would only populate fields, not prevent duplicates. A Lookup Object would retrieve data to inform logic, but it doesn't automatically avoid duplicates during write. Link Creation Field is for establishing relationships between records, not for preventing duplicates.
