- Hello Trailblazers, In this video, we're going to learn how we can convert metadata from source format to metadata format so that we can deploy that to a sandbox/production environment. I am using a scratch org here that I am considering as a sandbox for deployment and as we move towards the end of the video I'll also show you how you can authorize your sandbox/producton org using sfdx so that you can use that while running the mdapi deploy command.

Nice video
Very Good and precious
1. We have to create scratch org after authenticating to an existing Org in Vscode. If so then will codebase/configuration not be copied into Scartch org ? After expiration of scratch Org , again we have to create and deploy from source Org. Please confirm
2. Do we need to use VScode / CLI everytime to login into Scratch org Or can not we login directly username/password
Hi Arijit,
If you want to migrate a project from developer org to scratch org then yes, you need to authenticate to an existing org in vscode, take a pull by specifying a package.xml convert mdapi to source format (th-cam.com/video/WU_QPEPBwQI/w-d-xo.html) and create a scratch org and push metadata in that.
Once the scratch org is expired you can create another scratch org and push all your metadata again in that scratch org. Your scratch org is not the source of truth, it should be your git repository.
You don't need to login using CLI but that's easy because if you've a VSCode project that's connected to a scratch org you can directly open scratch org by using:- "Open Default Org" command. I'll share in future videos how you can get a username and password for a scratch org. Stay tuned..!!
@@sfdcstop thank you
Very useful video...clearly explained. one small suggestion.. you are using 'right' word most of the times..which you can limit using it. Thanks.
It's always one or the other thing, although I am trying to notice and fix in future videos. Thanks for highlighting that.
Hi!!
Nice video, can you please also create one video for unmanaged package deployment using SFDX command with Scratch org?
Thank you Anshuman, I've noted your suggestion. Will consider that one probably after the LWC series is complete.
Hi!
Based on your experience, which way do you recommend to have files tracked in a (SVN) repository? Source or Metadata format?
Thanks.
Hi, it depends on what approach you're following for development. If you're doing a scratch org based development, go for source format. If you're directly developing on developer/sandbox orgs, go for metadata format.
Hi SFDC Stop,
1. Is there any other way to create a sandbox without using VS Code?
2. Also generally we can see the Sandbox Name at the top of the screen, but the sandbox which you have created here for Deployment, its name is not present. Do we need to name it explicitly?
3. It would be great if you could just create some other video in which deployment is being done by Workbench. (A lot of people are in need for this).
4. At last I must say this was an amazing video and thanks a lot for all your efforts :)
Hi Ravi,
You cannot actually create a sandbox even by using VSCode. I created a scratch org here for the sake of demo but the procedure/commands will be same even if you're deploying to a sandbox/production environment. This is the reason you can't see the sandbox name because you need a production environment to create a sandbox.
Thank you for your suggestion buddy...I'll checkout deployment using workbench and will add a video asap.
Thanks for watching, keep learning and do share it in your network too and tag me in your post (@rahulcoder - twitter/linkedin) :-)
Thanks for the video....how do I add objects and fields in the package.xml.while converting source format to metada format, it's comes under the our created folder.right..but when I was converted that It won't fetch the objects and fields related to the lwc or apex class.wt I did wrong
Hi Rama, I haven't tried that personally yet but I guess that's a bug with sfdx cli :- github.com/forcedotcom/cli/issues/100
Hi rahual ,
thanks for the simple video,
I was following the video and want to push all the data form QA org to UAT Org(fresh) but I got errors which I can see in deployment status ,
Required field is missing: standardValue for multiple objects.
can you help me ..
Hi Junaid, those are specific to the metadata you're deploying. You can check with your project team members as they'll have a better background.
How you setup source folder structure - kindly help me on it
Hi Umme, you can create an empty sfdx project from VSCode and it'll create the source folder structure for you.
HI, I have created community in scratch and it comes under experience bundle. I want to deploy the same to sandbox and production. How to achieve the same as it gives error.
Hi Praneetha, I haven't tried deploying a community from scratch org, so, can't help much in that. What issue are you getting btw?
is there any tool where we can build manage package in salesforce
You can build it using sfdx cli itself.
Hi Rahul, here all the metadata is getting deployed in production, what if we just want to deploy profiles or some part of the source project and not all metadata. Please help. Thanks.
Hi Ankita, there are two options:
1. You can remove the metadata you don't need from the output folder and update the package.xml in the output folder accordingly and then deploy to destination (production) org.
2. You only fetch the data you need from sandbox and deploy that to prod. Have a look at SFDX Deploy Tool for this purpose where you just need to prepare the package.xml and you can do the deployment in one step. th-cam.com/video/EgvhT4KtXmQ/w-d-xo.html. I almost use it on a daily basis for frequent deployments.
How can we deploy a single class
How to fetch only specific components instead of all components?
Hey Prerna, for that you need a package.xml in the manifest. However, while working with scratch orgs, we don't need a package.xml as the salesforce cli will not fetch everything again and again at every pull. It'll only fetch the components that're updated in the org. Have a look at SFDX Deploy Tool video, that will be helpful:- th-cam.com/video/EgvhT4KtXmQ/w-d-xo.html
If we have different scratch orgs how to switch between them
Open the VSCode command palette. You have an option like: "Set a default org" that can be used to switch to a different org
Hi Rahul,
what if I have implemented something in scratch org and now want to deploy that into developer/sandbox -- so now what will be the process which one to use -- > source or metadata
and also with vice-versa like from sandbox to scratch org deployment which one to use and also in which case I need to convert my code
I hope you got my question, please reply!
Hi Sudheer, if you want to move metadata from scratch org to developer org, you need to convert it from source format to mdapi format and then deploy it to developer org.
In other case, you can convert the project back to source format and depoy it in a scratch org if you're taking a pull from developer org. Hope that helps!
@@sfdcstop got it, thanks Rahul
Can you explain how to deploy analytics studio in sfdx
Hi Chikku, I haven't worked on the same yet.
This was very helpful. Thank you.
Is creating scratch orgs mandatory ? Can I not deploy from one sandbox to another sandbox without creating a scratch org ?
Hi Abhinav, Scratch orgs are not mandatory, you can easily deploy from one sandbox to another using sfdx cli without creating a scratch org.
@@sfdcstopThanks.
1. Also, when I create a project for a sandbox, it already has package.xml. Do I need to always convert from source to metadata format ,create a new folder and then deploy that to new sandbox ?
2. If I want to add more metadata to package.xml, do I need to create a new xml file or just update the existing one ?
1. Sfdx is more advanced now so whatever format you have, if you have a package.xml you should be able to deploy it in a sandbox.
2. You can update the existing package.xml itself
@@sfdcstop Thanks.
Hi Rahul,
thanks for awesome video. learnt a lot.
Is process same to deploy from scratch org to Dev hub (Developer org enabled as Dev Hub)? convert source/scratch format to metadata format using sfdx force:source:convert command.. and then deploy using sfdx force:mdapi:deploy pls confirm..
Hi Biswa,
Happy to know that it helped :-)
Yes, the process will be the same for any non-scratch org, you're absolutely right.
@@sfdcstop Thank you!!
@@sfdcstop Hi Rahul,
Thank you for the fantastic videos in your channel. They are helping me so much.. I really like the way you explain the concepts. Please keep up the great work :-)
Thank you Gayathri :) More videos are on the way..!! Keep Learning 👍
you have created a scratch org instead of Using production env or sand box. Is the command same to deploy for sandbox?
Yes
Hi Rahul, we can also deploy in source format as well right? How is it different from deploying in Metadata format?
Deploying in source is much easier!
Also if I work on multiple non-scratch orgs is it bad to deploy from one org to another in source format?
Hi Archit, you're right you can use source format as well. SFDX is currently evolving, earlier source commands were mainly used to interact with scratch orgs and metadata commands were used to interact with sandboxes and production, now, you can also setup source tracking in sandboxes, so both the commands can be used. The difference is only that if you have the source tracking enabled, you will use push/pull commands and if you don't have that enabled, you'll use deploy/retrieve commands.
Metadata commands were useful earlier when we used to work with sublime and mavensmate to interact with salesforce.
You can use source format to deploy from one org to another it's completely fine. I mainly use it for deploying between scratch orgs as we have source tracking there so I am sure nothing is being overridden.
@@sfdcstop Thanks a lot this gives me a better understanding!
@@sfdcstop I had the same doubt, glad to see its already answered. So do we still use mdapi commands in development for some cases or its all source now?
