Overview

This policy determine what DryvIQ should do when it encounters duplicate content names.

Info

Move jobs always use Warn and Skip regardless of the duplicate name policy that is set due to the nature of the job type and the expected behavior.

Option

Behavior

"duplicate_names": "rename"

Rename duplicate content. The file name will be appended with (1) to indicate it is the renamed file. This is the default option.

"duplicate_names": "warn"

Log a warning for duplicate names.

Note

Ensure to configure this policy when using Bulk Migration API | Batch Mode.

Duplicate Folder Names

If there are duplicate folder names, DryvIQ will only create the child job for the first folder it encounters and skip the duplicate folder even if the "duplicate_names" policy is set to "rename." Therefore, it is important that you verify there are no duplicate folder names before creating your folder mapping job.
