Is it possible to transfer Analytics Dataset Metadata, Dashboards, and Dataflows from one Salesforce Org to another using AutoRABIT?

Yes, AutoRABIT is able to move Analytics Components Metadata, Dashboards, and Dataflows from one Salesforce Org to another Org and these data will be available under Wave Components list.

When you want to deploy the Analytics data, make sure you should have enabled Tableau CRM in your Source Org and should have assign permissions to your user record page through permission set.

To enable the Tableau CRM in your Salesforce Org, follow the below steps:

1. Login to your Salesforce account.
2. Go to Salesforce Setup and enter Analytics in the Quick Find / Search field.
3. Select Getting Started.
4. Click Enable Tableau CRM.

Before you enable this option, you must have a licence for the Analytics platform and this permission in your AutoRABIT profile.

How can I make the metadata components (ex- ReportType) available for commit and deployment?

Go to the 'My Salesforce Settings' section of the My Account page to activate the metadata components. After that, deselect the metadata types that you want to include in the excluded metadata types.

Unable to retrieve metadata components during deployment

If you're not able to retrieve the components in ARM although the components are available in Salesforce Org, then check for the Salesforce API version on which you're perfroming the deployment. You can look for the Salesforce API configured for your account under Admin > My Account > My Salesforce Settings section.

I am unable to access my SF Production org

1. When registering your production org, double-check the credentials.
2. Create a new API token for your Salesforce organisation and re-enter your credentials together with the new API token.
   
   

When I try to deploy one sandbox to another sandbox, it fails without any errors?

This commonly occurs when the Salesforce API version in your ARM application is wrongly configured.
You must upgrade the API source flow in your Salesforce org to the most recent version and maintain the same Salesforce version in ARM. To do so, go to Admin > My Account > My Salesforce Settings and update the API version.

I'm unable to use AutoRABIT to deploy changes made to standard Salesforce fields.

One of the prominent causes would be that the standard value set was not included in the commit.
If you include it in addition to the standard field while committing, the deployment validation will succeed. When it's a standard field, we recommend include the Standard Value Set and selecting metadata from the picklist option, and when it's a custom field, we recommend including the custom field.

Why does my deployment not appear in the target org when I run CI Jobs in AutoRABIT?

You probably wouldn't be able to see your deployment in the target org because the CI job was configured with the remove system and user permissions.
To resolve the issue, run the deployment while unchecking the user permissions option.

When selecting the Autodraft features to commit the changes, some of the components are missing?

This usually happens if you have used the filter with the most recent modified date rather than the source org's last modified date during the EZ-Commit process.

How do I use the AutoRABIT to deploy case assignment rules?

Go to the Deployment module and select case assignment rule during the metadata retrieval process to pick the rules.

If you are getting below errors during the deployment in ARM, follow the respective Salesforce article to get resolve the issues:

Where can I find the standard picklist values for my deployments in AutoRABIT?

You can be able to see the standard picklist fields under standard value set metadata.

I am unable to deploy the profile change from the version control repo to my target sandbox using single revision.
Select the below checkboxes after picking up the required metadata and the profile members:

• Commit Options for Profile: This option allows you to choose commit settings either for a full profile operation.
• Commit Access Settings for selected metadata (Profiles ONLY): This allows you to perform the commit operation based on the Profiles available only for the selected metadata.
  
  

Is it possible to deploy CI Jobs using the "Run Tests Based On Changes" option if some of the LWC components do not have test classes?

Yes, even if one of the LWC components does not have test classes, you can deploy by selecting "Run Tests Based On Changes" because the test is run on the existing test classes for the change relevant components.

Why are deployments based on revisions from a version control branch to my target environment failing?
This occurs when the metadata folder path in the VC repository section is not configured. This problem will not occur once the .src path has been configured.

I created a Release Label. Why don't I see it in the dropdown while performing New Deployment?

If you don't see the release label while performing New Deployment, it could be due to one of the following reasons:

• You have created a release label in ARM version 22.2 or older.
• You did not select the Create package manifest for Deployment check box while creating the release label in ARM 22.3.
• You selected the Create package manifest for Deployment check box but the package preparation failed.

All of these problems can be solved by simply going to the Release Label Summary screen, and clicking on Create Artifact for the respective release label. Once this is successful, the release label will be visible on the New Deployment page.

Why did the deployment fail without any error message?

To resolve this issue, please re-authenticate the Salesforce org and perform the deployment again. If the issue continues, please get in touch with our support team.

Why is ARM not picking the latest activated version of the record trigger flow?

You are trying to retrieve a recently updated Flow, and you are not getting the latest metadata in the review artifact. Modify the Salesforce Metadata API selected for the flow to the latest version, then retry the metadata retrieval. This time, you should see the latest metadata of the flow.

Why is deployment on the Salesforce org through CI Job failing with an error?

Change the baseline revision under CI jobs, then perform the deployment again. This should resolve the issue.

Why did the Release Label Merge fail with an error message on validation deployment?

One of the revisions in that Release Label may have duplicate values for the Layout file, as it could not pick the delta, so the validation failed. To resolve this:

1. Turn off On Successful Mock Deployment in the merge criteria and proceed with the merge, even though you have the validation deployment failure on the layout file.
2. Then manually modify the layout file on the target branch by removing the duplicate entries and triggering the CI Job deployment.
3. We recommend the same steps to avoid duplicates if you move changes into the Prod branch.

While trying to deploy a profile from our development org to the UAT org using the Profile Manager option, why is the profile not being deployed correctly to the UAT org?

This type of issue can occur if you have a profile in your UAT org and want to deploy it to the clone org, but the profile does not exist in your target org. We recommend using the Full Profile option in the Deployment module to resolve this. Then trigger the deployment again; the profile should successfully deploy to your target org.

Why did quick deploy fail in ARM but restart in Salesforce?

Quick Deploy may have failed due to the Metadata API version. Please update the Metadata API to the latest version and then perform the deployment again.

What does the 'Ignore Missing Visibility Settings' option do, and what effect does it have on the Deployment?

The 'Ignore Missing Visibility Settings' option refactors the Profiles/Permissions metadata.
If users enable this option, then the metadata that does not exist in the target org members' access settings/permissions will be removed in the package to reduce deployment failures.
The following permissions are skipped if they're missing from the destination org:

• applicationVisibilities
• classAccesses
• customMetadataTypeAccesses
• fieldPermissions
• flowAccesses
• layoutAssignments
• objectPermissions
• page accesses
• recordTypeVisibilities
• tabVisibilities

Why does the Deployment appear as 'Failed' in ARM despite being successful in Salesforce?

If a deployment was successful in Salesforce but failed in ARM, this may be a Salesforce permission issue.
Please follow the troubleshooting steps given by Salesforce to enable the Exempt from Transaction Security permission:

Various Deployment sources and their functionalities:

1. Deployment via Commit Label: The entire files from the most recent revision under the commit label will be packaged together.
Example: The entire profile will be part of the deployment.

2. Deployment via Single Revision: The delta change of the revision will be packaged.
Example: If file permissions are included in the revision, only the file permissions will be considered as part of the change.
