# Create a template. Duplicate rule: same trimmed case-folded text + same scope (and same owner, for Personal) UNIONS the incoming attachments into the existing row and returns it with 200 instead of minting a second one — so "Save note" of the same wording on a second med naturally accretes attachments. Any-item absorbs: if either side applies to any item, the merged result does.
