When an incident (INC) or request item (RITM) is resolved in ServiceNow, the user receives an Survey email notification with two options: ✅ (Resolved) and ❌ (Not Resolved).
If the user clicks ✅, they are redirected to a survey page.
If the user clicks ❌ (Not Resolved), a new incident should be created.
Currently, if the user clicks the ❌(Not Resolved) option multiple times, multiple duplicate incidents are being created.
Only one incident should be created, even if the user clicks multiple times.
Kindly help us to fix this requirement.

you need to check whether inbound action is setting correctly.

are you tracking somewhere the new INC created associated with the already resolved INC?
If yes then you can use that and ensure duplicate INCs are not created.
If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

where your server-side code is written?
add script condition to verify incident has already existed,
existingIncident.addQuery('issue_id', current.issue_id);
existingIncident.query();
if (existingIncident.hasNext()) {
// If an incident already exists, prevent the insert
gs.addErrorMessage('An incident has already been created for this issue.');
current.setAbortAction(true);
}
