Usage
MatchResult and its constituent objects are available to organizations that use duplicate rules.
There’s one MatchResult for each saved record that has duplicates. The MatchResult contains all duplicates for that saved record.
Java Sample
Here’s a sample that shows how to display the ID and type of all duplicates detected when leads are 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.
1for (MatchResult m : dupeResult.getMatchResults()) {
2 if (m.isSuccess()) {
3 System.out.println("The match rule that was triggered was " + m.getRule());
4 for (MatchRecord mr : m.getMatchRecords()) {
5 System.out.println("Your record matched " + mr.getRecord().getId() + " of type "
6 + mr.getRecord().getType());
7 System.out.println("The match confidence is " + mr.getMatchConfidence());
