Pipedrive API error 422: company domain already exists"

Export

Searches before creating Pipedrive companies. Use for 422 domain exists. Not for soft-deletes.

TL;DR

Pipedrive rejects the company because the domain already exists. Search for the existing company first and update it instead of creating a duplicate.

Error

Pipedrive API error 422: company domain already exists

Steps
