Review suggested duplicate records from the Suggested Duplicates queue in Curator Hub.

When reviewing suggested duplicate records, you can choose to:

• Merge the two records, selecting one as the record to retain after merge.
• Dismiss the suggestion, to leave the two records in place.
• View full record details, to review values for all record attributes before deciding whether to merge them.

To review suggested duplicate records:

1. Open Curator Hub.

2. Open a suggested duplicates queue from the Actions section. If your organization has a large number of data products, you can search for a queue for a specific data product filter to a specific data product type.

3. Filter the queue as needed to find the suggested duplicates you want to review.

4. Select a suggested duplicate to open a pairwise comparison.
   The comparison shows values for key attributes and whether each value matches, partially matches, or does not match between the two records.

5. Review the suggested merge, and do one of the following:

   • If these records are not duplicates, select Dismiss to reject the suggestion.

   • If these records are duplicates, merge them by selecting the rec that should be retained after the merge and then selecting Merge.
     Tip: The column on the right, with the record ID highlighted in yellow, shows a preview of the record after merge.

   • If you need to review the full record details to determine if they should merge, select View Details to open a pairwise comparison of all attributes for these two records.

6. When reviewing the full record details in a pairwise comparison (shown above), you can do the following before merging the records:

• Select which record to retain after the merge by toggling the Change ID option. The column on the right provides a preview of the record after the merge.
• Edit attribute values in the preview to specify a different attribute value after merge.

Confirming Record Merges

After you merge records, you can view merge details on the 360 page for the retained record.

• The merge is included in the Record History events.
• The merge is included in the Curation Activity section, in the Archived list.

You can also see the merge details in the Curator Hub Suggest Duplicates queue by filtering to dismissed events.
