2583952 - Curriculum Connector error 1173: Record received for duplicate entity

Symptom

  • Running the Curriculum Connector to remove the current curriculum-item association, the files are in UTF-8 encoding, the headers in use within the file are correct, however the association is not removed. 
  • The run is throwing Error 1173: Record received for duplicate entity

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Learning

Cause

There are 2 possible causes for such issues:

  1. The incorrect input file is being used to update the curriculum-item association;
  2. The connector mapping is missing some required configuration.

Resolution

For cause #1:

  1. Please verify that you are using the curriculum_item_data.txt file, and not the curriculum_data.txt

As per the connector workbook:

  • Curriculum connector: This connector adds new curricula and updates to existing curricula.
  • Curriculum item data connector: This part of the curriculum connector adds or removes items from a curriculum. It will not update any of the settings for an existing item.

 For cause #2:

  1. Please navigate to Learning Administration > System Administration > Configuration > System Configuration > CONNECTORS >
  2. Search for the following default properties are in the file and as follow:

    curriculum.connector.input.file.name1=curriculum_data.txt
    curriculum.connector.input.file.name2=curriculum_item_data.txt
    curriculum.connector.input.file.name3=curriculum_req_data.txt
    curriculum.connector.input.file.name4=curriculum_parent_data.txt
    curriculum.connector.input.file.name5=curriculum_locale_data.txt

  3. If you notice the first 2 missing or with a different extension (like CSV for instance) please change it back to txt and save your changes >
  4. Then try to run the connector again.

IMPORTANT: Learning connectors can import thousands of entities in the system, so we highly recommend that customers engage with our Professional Services organization or a certified Learning implementation partner before attempting to use connectors or any data import. Additionally, it's recommended to always test in a Stage/Preview tenant first.
