Hi, I also recently update amaxa with the newer version and i have a TypeError with the credentials(i use : username and Password) template.
Here, the example of the template:

here, the error that i have.

Thx.

👋 Hi, I learned about your project via your tweet.

This looks interesting. I have a use case where I need to copy some parent-child relationships from one org to another and perform a transform step to append a suffix to some text fields.

I didn't readily see how in the docs to perform a transform other than uppercase, lowercase, or strip.

Are there other transform capabilities to further change values?

Thanks

May be subsumed into #8

fields should take precedence over field-group, allowing tailoring of options at the level of the individual field.

Behavior if fields and field-group are disjoint to be defined.

We'd like to make it possible to extend Amaxa's transform system with simple pluggable modules.

Initial design sketch:

• An operation could specify an import path to a callable
• That callable is a factory, which accepts some metadata about the transform it's being asked to do (such as the field name and type)
• It returns a dict of transform names and callables that Amaxa can then apply.

Genesis of this proposal is discussion between David and Kyle Crouse about the infrastructure needed to support 3rd-party data obfuscation capabilities.

See also #29.

I've tried an extraction where a base object is defined in the beginning of the op file with the extract: ids: attribute. However, I also need to extract this object down the line a a child object. Listing the same object further down in the op file, this time with the extract: descendents: true attribute did not work as expected - the only extracted record of that object was the anchor record. Is this a limitation or a bug?

Thanks!

On Windows 10,
When try to extract the data (Case object) using smart, get the following error:

Case: starting extraction..
Unexpected exception 'charmap' codec can't encode character '\u0308' in position 3736: character maps to <undefined> occurred.

Please suggest solution for this issue.

Hi, i did different an Extract operations for my SObjects and i obtained different (Sobject.csv) file(In a sequential way). But i was trying to Load all the Sobjects the same way i did with the extraction process. But during the Load, i had this kind of error.

How do i solve this problem?
Thx!

This may be out of scope for this tool, but it could be useful to be able to obfuscate sensitive data prior to loading (or even during the export so that the sensitive data is never even saved to disk). Something like Faker coupled with the SF field metadata would make it fairly easy to generate realistic fake data.
If you do think it's out of scope for the tool, maybe some sort of plugin system for transforms could allow it to live on its own? Obviously neither the obfuscation transform nor the plugin system is a small undertaking, but I think they could make this tool even more useful.

The bot created this issue to inform you that pyup.io has been set up on this repo.
Once you have closed it, the bot will open pull requests for updates as soon as they are available.

Amaxa should allow CumulusCI authentication, as it does with Salesforce DX.

When running on Windows the following error is received when using sfdx credentials:

adding "shell=True" to the subprocess call in _load_v2 in credentials.py seems to resolve:

                ["sfdx", "force:org:display", "--json", "-u", sfdx_username],
                encoding="utf-8",
                capture_output=True,
                shell=True,

Depends on #7.

This will obviate the need for explicit type checking, and make possible sophisticated, type-aware transforms like maskers and fakers.

Hello @davidmreed , i don't know if it is an issue but how do we LIMIT the number or records?

Example: i would like to have 100 Accounts with associated Asset, Case, Contract, Contact, etc.

Thx.

Hi there,
Thank you for your responsiveness as well as for this awesome tool.
I was wondering if you have any advice about how to handle the Product, Pricebook and PricebookEntry trifecta? I haven't determined a way to import this data using Amaxa. Because a pricebookentry needs to be first added to the Default Pricebook - i'm struggling to figure out how to import pricebookentry because of the nature of the standard object.
Without the upsert function, it's not possible to add the pricebookentries to an existing pricebook (ie - the standard pricebook which is a salesforce default record).
I was wondering if you had any tips for dealing with this scenario. I do realize it's a specific case, and one of the more difficult relationships to navigate.
Thanks for your help!

When extracting in reverse order, the import fails when trying to load a child of a master-parent relationship, where the field was defined reparenting not allowed.
Example: We have an object called Employee, which has child File records, tied in a master detail. The Employee__c field on the File object is defined as reparenting not allowed.
If I try to extract just a specific File using a specific Id, followed by extracting the parent Employee record (using extract: descendents: true - reverse import), the operation fails: "Employee__c is a dependent lookup, but not updateable".
I'm assuming this happens because the operation is reverse and that identifies as an update to the Employee__c field, not insert. Which isn't allowed when reparenting is disabled for the relationship. Is there any possible solution or workaround for this?

Thank you!
