Deduplicate

Deduplicating is a process of taking a table as an input, group the similar records by one or more columns, and then decide on each set how to proceed with the records.

 

The deduplication step has the following syntax:

 

{

  "id": 11,
  "name": "Deduplicate table Dublicates, take random",
  "type": "deduplicate",
  "source": "Duplicates",
  "target": "Normalized_Duplicates_Random",
  "by": [ "cn", "dn" ],
  "strategy": "random"

}
