High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I retrieve Salesforce Commerce B2B storefront metadata into source control?▼

To retrieve Salesforce Commerce B2B storefront metadata, list available LWR sites via sf org list metadata, then use sf project retrieve start -m DigitalExperienceBundle:site/<name> --json to pull the auto-generated bundle into your repo.

Why does manually creating B2B storefront metadata fail in Salesforce Commerce?▼

Manually creating B2B storefront metadata fails because the Storefront must be auto-generated by the system. You must first create the Commerce B2B Store in Setup to generate the required Digital Experience bundle before retrieval.

What's the best way to set up a B2B Commerce store and deploy a Digital Experience bundle?▼

The best way to set up a B2B Commerce store is following an interactive guided flow to create the store in Setup, ensuring the Storefront auto-generates, then retrieving the DigitalExperienceBundle for deployment via sf cli.

How do I list available LWR sites before retrieving a storefront bundle?▼

List available LWR sites by running sf org list metadata to view existing Digital Experience sites. This confirms the auto-generated storefront exists before executing the sf project retrieve start command.

Do I need to create the Commerce B2B Store before retrieving storefront metadata?▼

Yes, creating the Commerce B2B Store first is required. Enforcing this order of operations prevents broken workflows, as the storefront metadata only auto-generates after the store exists in Setup.

Can I use sf cli to retrieve a specific DigitalExperienceBundle for a B2B storefront?▼

Yes, you can use sf cli to retrieve a specific DigitalExperienceBundle. Execute sf project retrieve start -m DigitalExperienceBundle:site/<selected-store-name> --json to pull the exact storefront bundle into version control.
