Hi
Good question.
Generally there is a Salesforce setting that needs to be adjusted to allow for duplicates.
Error: “DUPLICATE_VALUE”
If you see this error, there may be a "Duplicate Rule" in place on your Salesforce account preventing Zapier from creating the record. Here is an example of a "Duplicate Rule" for Account objects:
If the Actions are set to 'Alert', the rule will block these "fuzzy duplicates" from getting created and throw the "DUPLICATE_VALUE" error).
Unchecking the 'Alert' box will allow the "duplicate" to be created.
Salesforce's help docs cover more details on duplicate rules for standard objects and how to customize a duplicate rule.
