I have a Flow that creates a Contact record from user input. I ran into an issue where I entered a name that was similar to the name of an existing Contact and the Flow threw a fault with the fault message "This error occurred when the flow tried to create records: DUPLICATES_DETECTED: This contact might be a duplicate. Please review before proceeding. Use one of these contact records instead?"
When this alert appears when creating a Contact manually, I can either close it and proceed or click a link to see the potential duplicates. In a Flow though, it's a fault and I'm not sure how to handle it such that my users can proceed.
Advice?
You can write your duplicate rules to exclude the user running the flow. You can update the flow to run as System instead.
