Julie Curry 19 Salesforce Data Loader Export too large
I want to export 2.7m records using Salesforce Data Loader. I'm doing this in UAT and mostly it seems fine. I want to export these records to have them on file because we want to delete them from Salesforce.
The problem is that the export file (excel) will only show a little over 1 million rows. I'm not sure if there is a way to export into multiple files. If there is please let me know.
Alternatively, I was trying to add criteria to break out the export by record created date, but I can't get the formatting to work. I've tried a couple of things that look like '2013-06-11T13:54:00Z' but neither of them produces any records. I don't get an error but I don't get any records.
Can anyone provide suggestions on how to best do this? If I just jump straight to deleting the data will Data Loader return a file to me with the data that was deleted? Or maybe Workbench is the better option?
Thanks in advance for your help!
