Create or Update Remote Record Action Uniqueness checkbox cannot be checked during subflow creation.

I am developing a subflow to create records on other instances using the Create or Update Remote Record Action.
However, when I click to check the "Determines uniqueness" box next to where I want to specify Fields, it is not checked.
I was able to check the box for actions that create or update records in my instance.
Why can't I check the box in the Create or Update Remote Record Action?

Is it okay or no? 😛 if no, please share screenshot, I don't get the issue :))))

The "Determines uniqueness" checkbox is disabled for Create or Update Remote Record actions because your local instance cannot enforce uniqueness on a remote system. If you need this behavior, you should first run a Remote Lookup to check if the record exists, and then use a conditional to either create or update it. Uniqueness must be handled on the target instance (e.g., with unique indexes or business rules). I Believe this is reason...
