How to automate the remediation of duplicate CI's?

[Victor17]

Hi,

Is there a way to automate the remediation of duplicate CI's? The reason I'm asking is that we have several thousands of de-duplication tasks, and it is simply not a viable option to manually do them one at a time.

Any tips or recommendations would be much appreciated

Note : test it " thoroughly on lower instances" before doing it in production.

Thanks, but isn't there a OOB way to deal with CI duplicates (that isn't manual)?
