If a cross-reference record is incorrectly associated with a particular master record, a data steward can unmerge the cross-reference record. A new master record is created from the unmerged cross-reference record.
Only one cross-reference record can be unmerged in an unmerge call. If several cross-reference records need to be unmerged, make an unmerge call for each cross-reference record.
If a trigger is configured for an unmerge event, then an unmerge task is created. Otherwise, the cross-reference record is unmerged.
The URL and command to unmerge a record based on the system name and source key has the following format:
POST http://<host>:<port>/<context>/<database ID>/<business entity>/<row ID>?action=unmerge&systemName=<source system name>
{
name: "<object name>",
key: {rowid: "<rowid value>", sourcekey: "<source key>", systemName: "<source system name>" }
}
The URL and command to unmerge a record based on the cross-reference record ID has the following format:
