Deduplication Key
Zapier deduplicates the array we see each poll against the
id
key. If theid
key does not exist, you should specify an alternative unique key to deduplicate off of. If neither are supplied, we fallback to looking for the shortest key withid
in it otherwise we will raise an error.Xpath
