3 years agoI have found that an upsert is the safest way to create unique records. You can also use a formula query or a relationship to detect if the unique key already exists but if you create records on some mass basis like an import then multiple concurrent pipelines will spawn at the same time and they may both try to add the unique key as they will be in a race condition against each other. So an upsert will avoid that.

Thanks Mark. This works perfectly!
Yes, that was my concern, as I will be updating multiple records with the same tracking number at the same time.
Thanks so much for always being so helpful!
