Usage

MatchRecord and its constituent objects are available to organizations that use duplicate rules.

Each MatchRecord represents a duplicate detected when a record is saved. There can be multiple MatchRecord objects for a saved record if multiple duplicates are detected.

Java Sample

Here is a sample that shows how to display the ID and type of all duplicates detected when a lead is saved. See DuplicateResult for a full code sample that shows how to block users from entering duplicate leads and display an alert and a list of duplicates.
