System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Provides clear guidance and workflows for managing Salesforce metadata across source and metadata API formats, reducing deployment errors and unexpected org changes when retrieving, converting, or deploying components.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Source vs Metadata Conversion: Explains how to convert between Salesforce DX source format and Metadata API format for accurate deployments.
  • Targeted Retrieval & Deployment: Shows manifest-based and metadata-type retrievals, source-tracking workflows, and safe deploy practices including preview and conflict handling.
  • Configuration & Best Practices: Covers .forceignore usage, sfdx-project.json settings, and guidance on profiles versus permission sets to avoid permission regressions.
  • Use Case: Retrieve a subset of Apex classes and permission sets from a staging org, compare with a target org, and deploy only the changed components while preserving target-only permissions.

Quick Start

Use this skill to retrieve specified metadata with a manifest or metadata type, compare two org exports, and deploy the selected changes safely.
