Hi all,

 

I'm trying to load data into my custom object using the command line data loader, but am stuck trying to load the OwnerID using my External ID on teh User object.

 

I've got 2 users with external id field = Dataload_Id__c, and values = "owner_1", "owner_2"

Many of my data files will be wanting to assign ownership to one of these users (and potentially others), but I can't figure out the external ID syntax for my SDL file in data loader.

 

I've tried the following:

 

 

OwnerId=Owner\:Dataload_id__c

OwnerId=User\:Dataload_Id__c

OwnerId=Owner\:User\:Dataload_Id_c

 

none are working.

 

I know I can put the exact salesforce ID of my owners in the csv file, but this file will be used on numerous sandboxes where the owners will be created manually and repeatedly, meaning the salesforce ID won't be consistent. Also, files will be arriving from multiple sources, where creators only know the external ID of the owning users.

 

I'm sure this can be done, as I've used third party tools like Pervasive Data Integrator which allowed me to put, for example, "(User:Dataload_Id__c:owner_1)" as my load value. Pervasive used the standard salesforce API.

Thing is, I don't know how to translate this to an SDL file.

 

Can anyone help?

 

 

Kind regards,

Sunny

I typed in my linked in account into my profile.  I went into my profile->settings and clicked connect to social account for linked in.  I was redirected to a page to type in my linked in credentials.  I type them in and it says they were successfully linked and I click a button to go back to trailhead

I receive a message in a red banner that says "Whoops, looks like there was a problem. Please try again."

I try to log in using Linked in credentials to trailhead and it looks like I had created an account previously using my linked in credentials.

Is that the reason why I can't connect to my linked in account?  Can I remove the linked in version which I never used and connect the accounts?  Is there anyone I can reach out to for this?

Hello,

 

How do I view the details of a Deployment? If possible, I'd like to see an IP address of the person that performed the deployment and a list of files that were deployed. Is this possible? Ive tried putting the deployment ID into the URL but I get Insufficient Privileges.

 

A deployment went to production this morning at 8:23 AM (see attached) using my SF Account and I never kicked off any deployment. If this information is not available I will probably have put in a ticket to investigate it further. 

 

All information or suggestions are appreciated.
