Search for duplicates

asked on January 26, 2018

I have a lot of duplicates which I would like to delete. How can I search a folder for such i.e. document(1), documents(10), document (2) etc.?

You can use *(*) in the advanced search Name field. That will bring back everything that has parenthesis with something between the parenthesis.

Hi Darrell,

Is there some syntax where I would search and list the duplicates together with the original. In this case I will have DocumentName, DocumentName(1), DocumentName(2), etc.?

 

Thanks

Mark

You could probably do that through Workflow. I would search for duplicates using the *(*) search syntax then retrieve field values from each entry. I would then use a combination of those retrieved values and the name without the (*) part to search for those. Then use whatever tokens provided by the searches to create whatever report I needed.
