A Unique Identifier (UID) is a field that distinguishes one record from all others in AutoRABIT Vault. It enables AutoRABIT Vault to accurately reference, map, and synchronize individual records between Salesforce Orgs—preventing confusion or accidental duplication during operations.
AutoRABIT Vault cannot inherently track records between source and destination orgs—especially post-sandbox refresh—since the internal record mapping is not preserved. A UID allows AutoRABIT Vault to identify and match records between environments, ensuring continuity and preventing record duplication during replication or restoration.
This feature enables configuration of unique identifiers per object in Salesforce, facilitating:
Accurate data replication across Orgs.
Avoidance of duplicate record creation.
Preservation of object relationships across environments.
In AutoRABIT Vault, navigate to Setup, then select your Salesforce Org.
Go to the Unique Identifiers tab to view all objects and existing UID mappings.
Click Map next to the desired object. This will display all fields available in that object, including field types and UID eligibility.
Select the appropriate field(s) as the unique identifier(s).
Click Save. The screen will update with your selection mapped next to the corresponding object.
From the Unique Identifiers tab, click Auto-Map.
AutoRABIT Vault will scan and auto-select non-auto-increment unique fields across all objects.
This may take some time; AutoRABIT Vault notifies the user upon completion.
In the Unique Identifiers tab, click Clone to Another Org.
A dropdown will display all Salesforce Orgs registered in AutoRABIT Vault that have at least one UID mapping configured.
Select the destination Org and click Clone.
AutoRABIT Vault will check for the presence of identical objects and fields in the target Org and replicate the UID mappings.
