Canonical ID · Feature

Stop one person becoming several records across your team’s work.

A changed email, social profile or account can split notes, paths and follow-up across several records. Canonical ID brings supported evidence together and keeps uncertain pairs open for review instead of hiding the decision.

Canonical ID supports Network OS and Kernel. It is not a separate product.

One person, three source records

Separate identifiers can split the same person’s notes, relationship paths and shared work.

3 linked identifiers

Uncertain pair review Needs a decision

Do these belong to the same person?

The review keeps both source records visible before a person confirms or rejects the link.

Evidence before certainty

Bring source records together without treating every hint as proof.

Signup, supported source sync, archive imports, enrichment, and model suggestions can contribute identity evidence. Candidate pairs stay separate from applied identity links, and uncertain matches remain open for a person to review.

01

Use supported evidence

Supported Graph One sources can contribute identifiers and matching evidence without making every hint final.

02

Keep uncertain pairs reviewable

A person can confirm, reject, skip, or later revisit a pair when Graph One needs help with the decision.

03

Use the resolved person in the work

Resolved people can support Search results, profiles, relationship paths, and person references in Tables or Boards.
