Identifying Entities
Depending on the operation you are performing, you may need to identify components and references in your batch request.
- Ardoq OID — a unique identifier that is generated and assigned to every new entity created in Ardoq.
- Alias — a user-defined identifier that can be used to reference existing components and references.
- Batch ID — a temporary identifier assigned to entities created or upserted in the same batch request.
- Match — a way to match multiple entities based on a set of criteria. Only applicable when deleting entities.
