data Commands

Manage records in your org.

data bulk results

Get the results of a bulk ingest job that you previously ran.

Description for data bulk results

Use this command to get the complete results after running one of the CLI commands that uses Bulk API 2.0 to ingest (import, update, upsert, or delete) large datasets to your org, such as "data import bulk". The previously-run bulk command must have completed; if it's still processing, run the corresponding resume command first, such as "data import resume." Make note of the job ID of the previous bulk command because you use it to run this command.

You can also use this command to get results from running a bulk ingest job with a different tool, such as Data Loader, as long as you have the job ID. For information on Data Loader, see https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.dataLoader.meta/dataLoader/data_loader_intro.htm.

This command first displays the status of the previous bulk job, the operation that was executed in the org (such as insert or hard delete), and the updated Salesforce object. The command then displays how many records were processed in total, and how many were successful or failed. Finally, the output displays the names of the generated CSV-formatted files that contain the specific results for each ingested record. Depending on the success or failure of the bulk command, the results files can include the IDs of inserted records or the specific errors. When possible, if the ingest job failed or was aborted, you also get a CSV file with the unprocessed results.

Examples for data bulk results

Get results from a bulk ingest job; use the org with alias "my-scratch":

1sf data bulk results --job-id 7507i000fake341G --target-org my-scratch

data create file

Upload a local file to an org.

Description for data create file

This command always creates a new file in the org; you can't update an existing file. After a successful upload, the command displays the ID of the new ContentDocument record which represents the uploaded file.

By default, the uploaded file isn't attached to a record; in the Salesforce UI the file shows up in the Files tab. You can optionally attach the file to an existing record, such as an account, as long as you know its record ID.

You can also give the file a new name after it's been uploaded; by default its name in the org is the same as the local file name.

Examples for data create file

Upload the local file "resources/astro.png" to your default org:

1sf data create file --file resources/astro.png

Give the file a different filename after it's uploaded to the org with alias "my-scratch":

1sf data create file --file resources/astro.png --title AstroOnABoat.png --target-org my-scratch

data delete bulk

Bulk delete records from an org using a CSV file. Uses Bulk API 2.0.

Description for data delete bulk

The CSV file must have only one column ("Id") and then the list of record IDs you want to delete, one ID per line.

When you execute this command, it starts a job, displays the ID, and then immediately returns control of the terminal to you by default. If you prefer to wait, set the --wait flag to the number of minutes; if it times out, the command outputs the IDs. Use the job ID to check the status of the job with the "sf data delete resume" command.

Examples for data delete bulk

Bulk delete Account records from your default org using the list of IDs in the "files/delete.csv" file:

1sf data delete bulk --sobject Account --file files/delete.csv

You must have the "Bulk API Hard Delete" system permission to use this flag. The permission is disabled by default and can be enabled only by a system administrator.

Type: boolean

data delete record

Deletes a single record from a Salesforce or Tooling API object.

Description for data delete record

Specify the record you want to delete with either its ID or with a list of field-value pairs that identify the record. If your list of fields identifies more than one record, the delete fails; the error displays how many records were found.

When specifying field-value pairs, use the format <fieldName>=<value>. Enclose all field-value pairs in one set of double quotation marks, delimited by spaces. Enclose values that contain spaces in single quotes.

This command deletes a record from Salesforce objects by default. Use the --use-tooling-api flag to delete from a Tooling API object.

data export bulk

Bulk export records from an org into a file using a SOQL query. Uses Bulk API 2.0.

Description for data export bulk

You can use this command to export millions of records from an org, either to migrate data or to back it up.

Use a SOQL query to specify the fields of a standard or custom object that you want to export. Specify the SOQL query either at the command line with the --query flag or read it from a file with the --query-file flag; you can't specify both flags. The --output-file flag is required, which means you can only write the records to a file, in either CSV or JSON format.

Bulk exports can take a while, depending on how many records are returned by the SOQL query. If the command times out, the command displays the job ID. To see the status and get the results of the job, run "sf data export resume" and pass the job ID to the --job-id flag.

IMPORTANT: This command uses Bulk API 2.0, which limits the type of SOQL queries you can run. For example, you can't use aggregate functions such as count(). For the complete list of limitations, see the "SOQL Considerations" section in the "Bulk API 2.0 and Bulk API Developer Guide" (https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_asynch.meta/api_asynch/queries.htm).

Examples for data export bulk

Export the Id, Name, and Account.Name fields of the Contact object into a CSV-formatted file; if the export doesn't complete in 10 minutes, the command ends and displays a job ID. Use the org with alias "my-scratch":

1sf data export bulk --query "SELECT Id, Name, Account.Name FROM Contact" --output-file export-accounts.csv --wait 10 --target-org my-scratch

Similar to previous example, but use the default org, export the records into a JSON-formatted file, and include records that have been soft deleted:

1sf data export bulk --query "SELECT Id, Name, Account.Name FROM Contact" --output-file export-accounts.json --result-format json --wait 10 --all-rows

Flags

Permissible values are: LF, CRLF

data export resume

Resume a bulk export job that you previously started. Uses Bulk API 2.0.

Description for data export resume

When the original "data export bulk" command times out, it displays a job ID. To see the status and get the results of the bulk export, run this command by either passing it the job ID or using the --use-most-recent flag to specify the most recent bulk export job.

Using either `--job-id` or `--use-most-recent` will properly resolve to the correct org where the bulk job was started based on the cached data by "data export bulk".

Examples for data export resume

Resume a bulk export job run by specifying a job ID:

1sf data export resume --job-id 750xx000000005sAAA

Type: option

data export tree

Export data from an org into one or more JSON files.

Description for data export tree

Specify a SOQL query, either directly at the command line or read from a file, to retrieve the data you want to export. The exported data is written to JSON files in sObject tree format, which is a collection of nested, parent-child records with a single root record. Use these JSON files to import data into an org with the "sf data import tree" command.

If your SOQL query references multiple objects, the command generates a single JSON file by default. You can specify the --plan flag to generate separate JSON files for each object and a plan definition file that aggregates them. You then specify just this plan definition file when you import the data into an org.

The SOQL query can return a maximum of 2,000 records. For more information, see the REST API Developer Guide. (https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_rest.meta/api_rest/resources_composite_sobject_tree.htm).

Examples for data export tree

Export records retrieved with the specified SOQL query into a single JSON file in the current directory; the command uses your default org:

1sf data export tree --query "SELECT Id, Name, (SELECT Name, Address__c FROM Properties__r) FROM Broker__c"

Export data using a SOQL query in the "query.txt" file and generate JSON files for each object and a plan that aggregates them:

1sf data export tree --query query.txt --plan

Prepend "export-demo" before each generated file and generate the files in the "export-out" directory; run the command on the org with alias "my-scratch":

1sf data export tree --query query.txt --plan --prefix export-demo --output-dir export-out --target-org my-scratch

data get record

Retrieve and display a single record of a Salesforce or Tooling API object.

Description for data get record

Specify the record you want to retrieve with either its ID or with a list of field-value pairs that identify the record. If your list of fields identifies more than one record, the command fails; the error displays how many records were found.

When specifying field-value pairs, use the format <fieldName>=<value>. Enclose all field-value pairs in one set of double quotation marks, delimited by spaces. Enclose values that contain spaces in single quotes.

The command displays all the record's fields and their values, one field per terminal line. Fields with no values are displayed as "null".

This command retrieves a record from Salesforce objects by default. Use the --use-tooling-api flag to retrieve from a Tooling API object.

Type: option

data import tree

Import data from one or more JSON files into an org.

Description for data import tree

The JSON files that contain the data are in sObject tree format, which is a collection of nested, parent-child records with a single root record. Use the "sf data export tree" command to generate these JSON files.

If you used the --plan flag when exporting the data to generate a plan definition file, use the --plan flag to reference the file when you import. If you're not using a plan, use the --files flag to list the files. If you specify multiple JSON files that depend on each other in a parent-child relationship, be sure you list them in the correct order.

Examples for data import tree

Import the records contained in two JSON files into the org with alias "my-scratch":

1sf data import tree --files Contact.json,Account.json --target-org my-scratch

Import records using a plan definition file into your default org:

1sf data import tree --plan Account-Contact-plan.json

Flags

Type: option
-f | --files FILES
Optional

Comma-separated and in-order JSON files that contain the records, in sObject tree format, that you want to insert.

Type: option
-p | --plan PLAN
Optional

Plan definition file to insert multiple data files.

Unlike when you use the `--files` flag, the files listed in the plan definition file **can** contain more then 200 records. When the CLI executes the import, it automatically batches the records to comply with the 200 record limit set by the API.

The order in which you list the files in the plan definition file matters. Specifically, records with lookups to records in another file should be listed AFTER that file. For example, let's say you're loading Account and Contact records, and the contacts have references to those accounts. Be sure you list the Accounts file before the Contacts file.

The plan definition file has the following schema:

- items(object) - SObject Type: Definition of records to be insert per SObject Type

- sobject(string) - Name of SObject: Child file references must have SObject roots of this type

- files(array) - Files: An array of files paths to load

Type: option

data query

Execute a SOQL query.

Description for data query

Specify the SOQL query at the command line with the --query flag or read the query from a file with the --file flag.

If your query returns more than 10,000 records, prefer to use the `sf data export bulk` command instead. It runs the query using Bulk API 2.0, which has higher limits than the default API used by the command.

Examples for data query

Specify a SOQL query at the command line; the command uses your default org:

1sf data query --query "SELECT Id, Name, Account.Name FROM Contact"

Read the SOQL query from a file called "query.txt" and write the CSV-formatted output to a file; the command uses the org with alias "my-scratch":

1sf data query --file query.txt --output-file output.csv --result-format csv --target-org my-scratch

data search

Execute a SOSL text-based search query.

Description for data search

Specify the SOSL query at the command line with the --query flag or read the query from a file with the --file flag.

By default, the results are written to the terminal in human-readable format. If you specify `--result-format csv`, the output is written to one or more CSV (comma-separated values) files. The file names correspond to the Salesforce objects in the results, such as Account.csv. Both `--result-format human` and `--result-format json` display only to the terminal.

Examples for data search

Specify a SOSL query at the command line; the command uses your default org:

1sf data search --query "FIND {Anna Jones} IN Name Fields RETURNING Contact (Name, Phone)"

Read the SOSL query from a file called "query.txt"; the command uses the org with alias "my-scratch":

1sf data search --file query.txt --target-org my-scratch

Similar to the previous example, but write the results to one or more CSV files, depending on the Salesforce objects in the results:

1sf data search --file query.txt --target-org my-scratch --result-format csv

data update bulk

Bulk update records to an org from a CSV file. Uses Bulk API 2.0.

Description for data update bulk

You can use this command to update millions of Salesforce object records based on a file in comma-separated values (CSV) format.

All the records in the CSV file must be for the same Salesforce object. Specify the object with the `--sobject` flag. The first column of every line in the CSV file must be an ID of the record you want to update. The CSV file can contain only existing records; if a record in the file doesn't currently exist in the Salesforce object, the command fails. Consider using "sf data upsert bulk" if you also want to insert new records.

Bulk updates can take a while, depending on how many records are in the CSV file. If the command times out, the command displays the job ID. To see the status and get the results of the job, run "sf data update resume" and pass the job ID to the --job-id flag.

For information and examples about how to prepare your CSV files, see "Prepare Data to Ingest" in the "Bulk API 2.0 and Bulk API Developer Guide" (https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_asynch.meta/api_asynch/datafiles_prepare_data.htm).

Examples for data update bulk

Update Account records from a CSV-formatted file into an org with alias "my-scratch"; if the update doesn't complete in 10 minutes, the command ends and displays a job ID:

1sf data update bulk --file accounts.csv --sobject Account --wait 10 --target-org my-scratch

data update record

Updates a single record of a Salesforce or Tooling API object.

Description for data update record

Specify the record you want to update with either its ID or with a list of field-value pairs that identify the record. If your list of fields identifies more than one record, the update fails; the error displays how many records were found.

When using field-value pairs for both identifying the record and specifiyng the new field values, use the format <fieldName>=<value>. Enclose all field-value pairs in one set of double quotation marks, delimited by spaces. Enclose values that contain spaces in single quotes.

This command updates a record in Salesforce objects by default. Use the --use-tooling-api flag to update a Tooling API object.

Examples for data update record

Update the Name field of an Account record with the specified (truncated) ID:

1sf data update record --sobject Account --record-id 001D0 --values "Name=NewAcme"

Update the Name field of an Account record whose current name is 'Old Acme':

1sf data update record --sobject Account --where "Name='Old Acme'" --values "Name='New Acme'"

Update the Name and Website fields of an Account record with the specified (truncated) ID:

1sf data update record --sobject Account --record-id 001D0 --values "Name='Acme III' Website=www.example.com"

Update the ExpirationDate field of a record of the Tooling API object TraceFlag using the specified (truncated) ID:

data update resume

Resume a bulk update job that you previously started. Uses Bulk API 2.0.

Description for data update resume

When the original "sf data update bulk" command times out, it displays a job ID. To see the status and get the results of the bulk update, run this command by either passing it the job ID or using the --use-most-recent flag to specify the most recent bulk update job.

Using either `--job-id` or `--use-most-recent` will properly resolve to the correct org where the bulk job was started based on the cached data by "data update bulk".

Examples for data update resume

Resume a bulk update job using a job ID:

1sf data update resume --job-id 750xx000000005sAAA

Bulk upsert records to an org from a CSV file. Uses Bulk API 2.0.

Description for data upsert bulk

An upsert refers to inserting a record into a Salesforce object if the record doesn't already exist, or updating it if it does exist.

When you execute this command, it starts a job, displays the ID, and then immediately returns control of the terminal to you by default. If you prefer to wait, set the --wait flag to the number of minutes; if it times out, the command outputs the IDs. Use the job and batch IDs to check the status of the job with the "sf data upsert resume" command.

See "Prepare CSV Files" in the Bulk API Developer Guide for details on formatting your CSV file. (https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_asynch.meta/api_asynch/datafiles_prepare_csv.htm)
