Message
E11000 duplicate key error collection: [database].[collection] index: id dup key: { id: ObjectId('[object_id]') }
Cause
This error occurs when there is an attempt to insert into a Buffer a record with an `_id` that already exists within the buffer. This might happen when taking records from one buffer and inserting them into another buffer, or when `_id` is being manually assigned.
Resolution
There are a few ways to resolve this issue:
1. Let the database assign the `_id` to the document being inserted into a Buffer. Remove the existing `_id` on the record before inserting, and the server will generate a valid, unique key (Recommended).
2. Create a new `ObjectID` before insertion by using the appropriate method available in a Calculator step. This ensures a unique identifier is generated programmatically, which can help prevent collisions.
