None

Examples

In the picture below, you see the filter definition for the duplicate detection rules. there is nothing left to change except for the filter condition to specify your duplicate detection rules you want deploy. In this case the filter just matches a specific name.

To deploy your duplicate detection rules properly, you have to deploy the duplicate rule condtions, which belong to your duplicate rule, too. Therefor the filter for the duplicate rules has to be specified by you, so that all duplicate rules, which are specified by the above filter, get their conditions on the new environment too. In this case those rules got filtered by an regarding object ID. This ID is the ID of the “test rule 1”, specified by the upper filter. If you want to deploy your rule the exact same way, you have to open your duplicate detecion rule and extract the ID out of the URL as shown in the second picture below. You won’t find it with the Advanced Find window.
