Hi ,
You can create plugin for the respective entity create event and return error if any duplicate data founds.
Yes you can. On click of save, you can check the formtype. If formtype is equal to 1, you can check for the duplicate record. If duplicate record exist, you can restrict system from saving the form.
You can refer to below link for same:

General practice is to write a server side code through plugin on pre-create event.
Using plugin you can restrict duplicate record creation through excel import or record creation through any sort of integration.
Using javascript,it will only check when user performs creation of record through CRM form.
Mark answer correct if you find useful.
Thanks
Hello,
To avoid duplicates to be created use MSCRM.SuppressDuplicateDetection header in your http request. More detailed information can be found here - docs.microsoft.com/.../manage-duplicate-detection-create-update
Alternatively, you can set alternate keys on the entities to restrict duplicate record. This will ensure that you cannot create a duplicate from anywhere :)

Hope this helps.
