Remove Duplicates
Use the Remove Duplicates node to identify and delete items that are identical across all fields or a subset of fields. This is helpful in situations where you can end up with duplicate data, such as a user creating multiple accounts, or a customer submitting the same order multiple times. When working with large datasets it becomes more difficult to spot and remove these items.
