Then, make your populating search this:</P> <PRE><CODE> index="MYINDEX" host="MYHOST" source="MYSOURCE.csv" | stats count by CUS_NAME </CODE></PRE> <P>Stats is much more efficient in removing dedups.</P> Wed, 16 Mar 2016 16:05:42 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Duplicate-labels-causing-conflict-when-importing-Data-from-CSV/m-p/248698#M99169 alacercogitatus 2016-03-16T16:05:42Z
