'Lead email identification' toggled on. Not enough to prevent lead duplicates across devices?


Adrian Love

hey folks 👋

I have this option set in the security settings, with the understanding that it will add identifiers to leads when they click-through on emails.



But! Today I’ve encountered a case where an existing lead ended up with a duplicate record when they clicked-through an email on a different device than the one they initially used to open / interact with that email. 

Am I wrong in my understanding that this setting should serve as a fallback when a lead lands on our site via an email on a different device/without the initial/last cookie for reference?

NB - The page views logged on the duplicate lead show that the URL parameters from the email click were passed-through, so it’s not a case this lead was using a browser setting / extension to strip the tracking IDs.

TIA!
Adrian

Hey @Daniel M15 , 

Ok, thanks! Request sent.

Btw, it’d be great if there was something such as an express/expedite link that only worked for the ID’d user.
As an example, such link could be shared by you in this instance to perform the pre-triage. 
 



Would save the hassle of going through the convoluted bot branching options that I experienced when raising this issue via messenger…. such a waste of time 🤦🏻‍♂️


Thanks, 
Adrian
