Evidence tier describes my hands-on relationship with the content. Official sources describe platform contracts/documentation. Production observations should not automatically be treated as official limits.
Salesforce documents that _AutomationInstance generates a row for each email address receiving automation notifications.
What to check
- Compare AutomationInstanceID across duplicate-looking rows.
- Inspect notification-recipient columns.
Make it cheaper next time
- Deduplicate by AutomationInstanceID when building health dashboards.
- Use a shared distribution list for notifications when appropriate.
