Dialpad generates duplicates on creating a contact via REST API

The Dialpad generates a duplicate after a fews seconds as I create a contact in Dialpad using it's REST API (POST) call. Moreover, the 'id' of the duplicate contacts is in this format:

๐—™๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐˜: ๐˜ด๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฅ๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ข๐˜ค๐˜ต๐˜ฑ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฐ๐˜ญ๐˜Š๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฑ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜บ:{๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฑ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜บ๐˜๐˜ฅ}๐˜ถ๐˜ช๐˜ฅ_{๐˜ข๐˜ค๐˜ต๐˜ถ๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜Š๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ข๐˜ค๐˜ต๐˜๐˜ฅ}

๐——๐—ฒ๐˜€๐—ฐ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ฝ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป: The companyId (i.e., 5956508342976512) is my company's Dialpad id and the actualContactId (i.e., 4578593930641408) is the id of the same contact that was initially created by the flow.

I want to know:

๐—ฎ) Why Dialpad is generating duplicates?
๐—ฏ) How can I avoid or disable duplicates' creation?
