## What happens when duplicates are detected across different backends?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There is a default precedence defined for each backend. This should be defined
|
||
|
|
so that the backend with highest precedence is the backend that should contain
|
||
|
|
the most precise information usually.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When deduplicating, the post from the backend with the highest precedence is
|
||
|
|
kept and missing info is taken from the duplicate posts (precedence is used so
|
||
|
|
that in case of conflicts in a field, the data from the backend with highest
|
||
|
|
precedence is used). This post contains as much data as possible, and includes
|
||
|
|
references to all the other "duplicate" posts. These latter duplicate posts
|
||
|
|
are then simply marked as such and never shown anymore.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
All origins are kept in a `urls` field in the remaining post.
