  Modify the Migration Data: If you find that the group ID already exists, you can either:
  
  Change the group ID in your migration data to a unique one.

  Clean Up Previous Migration Attempts: If you have run the migration process before, ensure that you clean up any leftover data or groups that may have been created during previous attempts.
  Review Migration Configuration: Ensure that the migration configuration is set up correctly and that there are no settings that could lead to the creation of duplicate entries.
