Perform identity match analysis to find similar or duplicate identities in a data set or between two data sets.
Similar identities in two or more records might indicate record duplication. Or, the similar identities might indicate a connection between the records, such as a shared family identity or a shared employer identity.
When you configure the Match transformation for identity match analysis, you set the options on the following views:
Match Type
Strategies
Match Output
Optionally, set the options on the Parameters and Advanced views.
When you configure a Match transformation for identity match analysis, connect input ports to all of the primary required fields in an identity strategy. Most identity strategies contain primary required fields. Some strategies also contain secondary required fields. Connect an input port to at least one secondary required field.
