i.e., for some Leads we will get more information and for some we might get less information

Note, Additional information can be stored in DQ Additional Info Entity as shown previously or you can Map it to a Custom or System Field instead.

For example, we will map ‘Company Linked URL’ Additional information to Fields instead of DQ Additional Info Entity

For Storing Company Linked URL Additional information to Field instead of DQ Additional Info Entity, we need to map ‘Company LinkedIn URL’ field to Custom or System Field

In our case we are mapping those to custom field ‘new_twitterurl’ as shown below

Save and Publish the form.

Now again go to Lead’s form and Search for Same Lead information.

When you navigate to newly created Lead you will notice that this time LinkedIn value is updated in field we mapped (in our case new_linkedinurl).

This time as we are having existing lead, so will by default show values from existing Lead in Search Criteria Screen. Now user can select values he wants to use for searching lead and then click on Search button

DQ API will use search criteria values to find matching Leads. Now select the lead for which you want to get Full Information and click on ‘Get Full Info’ Button

When you click on ‘Get Full Info’ button, this time as we are having existing lead, so DQ Control will compare data retrieved from DQ APIs with existing lead and show that in Popup for review.

• If Existing and New value retrieved from API are same, then we disabled those values.
