Why could splunk bring duplicate events from a database?

I'm bringing transactions from an IBM cloudant database but doing the indexing brings twice as many events.

Hello @jvergara,

did you check if the duplicated events where indexed at the same time (same activation of the modular input)?

We have to rule out the possibility that your query from the database returns 2 times the same events.
