I have a dataframe as below



customerid                                   term   age
08a858899538ddb8e015390510b321f0830199897 30 24
18a858959537a097401537a4e316e25f730196361 60 72
a8589c253ace09b0153af6ba58f1f313019822366 45 38


I am creating an entity as below using featuretools



es = es.entity_from_dataframe(entity_id = 'cust', dataframe = df, index = 'customerid')


but i get the error



AssertionError: Index is not unique on dataframe (Entity cust)


yet customerid is the identifier

    Is it possible that customerid is not unique? You can check if that is the case with len(es) == es.customerid.nunique() (if it's False, then you have repeated customerids).

    @JulianPeller is right. You should run that check on the dataframe not the entityset though, so the code would be len(df) == df.customerid.nunique()
