Hi, I have a Views's query that extract emails addresses from a CPT.
The problem is that the same email address can be stored in more than one post.

Is it possible to avoid having these duplicates on Views?

Thanks

Hello,

I assume we are talking about a custom email field created with Types plugin.
Are you going to display one post per email?

If it is, there isn't such kind of built-in feature within Toolset plugins, since the email field field isn't unique value, so you won't get unique results.

Toolset Views/Blocks plugin is using WP_Query to query posts, see WP document:
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_query/#custom-field-post-meta-parameters
There isn't such kind of built-in feature too.

You might consider custom codes, I have search it in google, and found some related threads:
