Issues

Setup

  • It doesn't give you correct error messages until you go to deploy it. 
  • Bug? I have two fields on Campaign named Start Date (yeah, I know, I didn't set it up). The custom fields do not show. is this because it is just reading the metadata based on Label and not duplicating the fields? 
    • Yes! that is exactly what it is. I renamed the standard Start Date and End Date to XStart Date and XEnd Date and now the custom Start and End dates appear. PLEASE display fields based on API Name not Label. 
  • It doesn't seem to like dates with GMT offsets  eg 2015-01-01T00:01:01+10:00 ERROR at Row:1:Column:70 line 1:70 mismatched character '+' expecting set null

...

  • Why would it not be able to move users over - error is REQUIRED_FIELD_MISSING:Required fields are missing: [Username, ProfileId]:Username ProfileId - this is a freshly pressed sandbox - can't there be a lookup on something other than UserID? Doesn't Replicate User handle this? 
  • Why am I getting errors like this INVALID_CROSS_REFERENCE_KEY:Record Type ID: this ID value isn't valid for the user: XXXXXXX:RecordTypeId -- when I have set Replicate RecordType?
  • Does it not work with NPSP - this error Ooops looks like there was a problem with the deployment: InvalidBatch : Failed to process query: INVALID_FIELD: CMFL__CustomerPriority__c, OwnerId, RecordTypeId, OwnerId, Contact_Person__c, npe01__One2OneContact__c ^ ERROR at Row:1:Column:698 duplicate field selected: OwnerId
  • Why is this error happening? INACTIVE_OWNER_OR_USER:operation performed with inactive user [XXXXXXZ] as owner of contact:-- and it was happening still after I turned on the new setting to allow for updates to records with inactive owners. 
  • WHY OH WHY Am I getting this error - it started, it did stuff, then it failed with this error? Ooops looks like there was a problem with the deployment: Server returned HTTP response code: 503 for URL:
    • I can understand a freshly-pressed sandbox could give this error if you tried a deploy 5 mins after it was created, like I did, but to start, then get that error? 
  • FAAAAAAAARK! Now I'm getting this error and deployment fails. Ooops looks like there was a problem with the deployment: InvalidBatch : Failed to process query: INVALID_FIELD: Start_Date__c from campaign WHERE ( Start_Date__c IN ('2015-05-30','2016-09-08' ^ ERROR at Row:1:Column:63 value of filter criterion for field 'Start_Date__c' must be of type date and should not be enclosed in quotes
    • Why didn't it pick this up before the deployment started? AND I NEVER set my query to that and Start_Date__c is a valid field AND it previously ran with no issues!!!! WTAF?!?!?!
    • This is my Data Set. It's just making shit up now! So frustrating!

Info

How do I do staged deploys? Eg, say I'm running events....

  • I want to do all Campaigns, and all the setup objects related to that, like Venues etc.
  • I don't want all Contacts in my sandbox.
  • I have a group of staff and users in one or two campaigns used for testing.
  • I want to do a second deployment based on Contacts and filter on only the contacts that are the ones that are in those two Campaigns.
  • But how will I be able to deploy Campaign Members - because it won't be able to find the Campaigns because they are already created.
  • And can you even have two "Root" Data Sets?

Ah, this is where the upsert comes into it. More investigation needed.

 

Or what if I have completed a deployment and forgotten a few objects? How do I add them to the deployment without starting over again? How do I do that?
