Synchronisation Non-explicit Id MatchingSynchronisation Non-explicit Id Matching

When using non explicit id matching, the lookup for the content is handled in the following way and order:

  1. Lookup is done through Pure id matching (the pure id is the id the content in question has inside Pure, and given by Pure when the content is created.)
  2. Lookup is done through source id matching (the source id is the id the content was given when it was imported into Pure from an external source. This can be through synchronisation, import jobs etc.)
  3. Lookup is done through classification defined id matching (classification defined ids are ids that content can be given inside Pure through the editor.)
  4. Lookup is done through Pure UUID matching.
  5. All the above steps are taken and the result is returned. If more than one result is matched, due to for example duplicate ids, then the first result matched will be returned.
