A useful situation for Remove Duplicate Lines
Use it when you are cleaning a spreadsheet export, merging notes, or preparing a unique list before import.
The workflow is intended for analysts, marketers, operations teams, developers, and administrators.
Limits and common errors
The tool compares text lines and does not validate the business meaning of each record.
A common mistake is deduplicating before checking whether two similar lines intentionally represent different records.
Privacy and the next step
The list is processed locally and does not need to be uploaded.
