Identifiers
Sources use externally defined identifiers to track uniqueness and idempotence.
Identifiers are the key pivot for idempotence and deduplication of objects (including Transactions) written via the API. Each source (and account within a source) has an independent identifier key space.
For most integrations, External IDs are used for idempotence and deduplication. Two writes for the same identifier will result in one object. sync endpoints will respect the properties of the most recent write to a given identifier.
External IDs simplify idempotence for integrations
