Does a custom Dedup rule change the behavior of API function SyncLead?

Hi, 

According the the API documentation, the SyncLead function ignores the context header if the lead is already in the database. 

  • If an existing lead is matched by email, the named workspace is ignored and the lead is updated in its’ current partition

If we setup a custom Dedup rule, does it change the function of SyncLead to also use the new rule rather than just using email as indicated? 

thx!

Hey Mark,

The context header targeting the workspace will be ignored for leads which already exist in the database, but the custom deplucation rules will be honored.  Additionally, syncMultipleLeads has the option to ignore all deduplication rules and create new records indiscriminately by setting dedupeEnabled to false.
