sf data bulk results
Get the results of a bulk ingest job that you previously ran.
USAGE
$ sf data bulk results -i <value> -o <value> [--json] [--flags-dir <value>] [--api-version <value>]
FLAGS
-i, --job-id=<value> (required) Job ID of the bulk job.
-o, --target-org=<value> (required) Username or alias of the target org. Not required if the `target-org`
configuration variable is already set.
--api-version=<value> Override the api version used for api requests made by this command
GLOBAL FLAGS
--flags-dir=<value> Import flag values from a directory.
--json Format output as json.
DESCRIPTION
Get the results of a bulk ingest job that you previously ran.
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
Get results from a bulk ingest job; use the org with alias "my-scratch":
$ sf data bulk results --job-id 7507i000fake341G --target-org my-scratch
See code: src/commands/data/bulk/results.ts
sf data create file
Upload a local file to an org.
USAGE
$ sf data create file -o <value> -f <value> [--json] [--flags-dir <value>] [--api-version <value>] [-t <value>] [-i
<value>]
FLAGS
-f, --file=<value> (required) Path of file to upload.
-i, --parent-id=<value> ID of the record to attach the file to.
-o, --target-org=<value> (required) Username or alias of the target org. Not required if the `target-org`
configuration variable is already set.
-t, --title=<value> New title given to the file (ContentDocument) after it's uploaded.
--api-version=<value> Override the api version used for api requests made by this command
GLOBAL FLAGS
--flags-dir=<value> Import flag values from a directory.
--json Format output as json.
DESCRIPTION
Upload a local file to an org.
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
Upload the local file "resources/astro.png" to your default org:
$ sf data create file --file resources/astro.png
Give the file a different filename after it's uploaded to the org with alias "my-scratch":
$ sf data create file --file resources/astro.png --title AstroOnABoat.png --target-org my-scratch
Attach the file to a record in the org:
$ sf data create file --file path/to/astro.png --parent-id a03fakeLoJWPIA3
See code: src/commands/data/create/file.ts

GLOBAL FLAGS
--flags-dir=<value> Import flag values from a directory.
--json Format output as json.
DESCRIPTION
Bulk delete records from an org using a CSV file. Uses Bulk API 2.0.
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
Bulk delete Account records from your default org using the list of IDs in the "files/delete.csv" file:
$ sf data delete bulk --sobject Account --file files/delete.csv
Bulk delete records from a custom object in an org with alias my-scratch and wait 5 minutes for the command to
complete:
$ sf data delete bulk --sobject MyObject__c --file files/delete.csv --wait 5 --target-org my-scratch
FLAG DESCRIPTIONS
--hard-delete
Mark the records as immediately eligible for deletion by your org. If you don't specify this flag, the deleted
records go into the Recycle Bin.
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.
See code: src/commands/data/delete/bulk.ts
sf data delete record
Deletes a single record from a Salesforce or Tooling API object.
USAGE
$ sf data delete record -o <value> -s <value> [--json] [--flags-dir <value>] [--api-version <value>] [-i <value>] [-w
<value>] [-t]
FLAGS

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

--query-file=<value> File that contains the SOQL query.
GLOBAL FLAGS
--flags-dir=<value> Import flag values from a directory.
--json Format output as json.
DESCRIPTION
Bulk export records from an org into a file using a SOQL query. Uses Bulk API 2.0.
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,
or you specified the --async flag, 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
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":
$ sf 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:
$ sf data export bulk --query "SELECT Id, Name, Account.Name FROM Contact" --output-file export-accounts.json \
--result-format json --wait 10 --all-rows
Export asynchronously; the command immediately returns a job ID that you then pass to the "sf data export resume"
command:
$ sf data export bulk --query "SELECT Id, Name, Account.Name FROM Contact" --output-file export-accounts.json \
--result-format json --async
See code: src/commands/data/export/bulk.ts
sf data export resume

USAGE
$ sf data export resume [--json] [--flags-dir <value>] [-i <value>] [--use-most-recent] [--api-version <value>]
FLAGS
-i, --job-id=<value> Job ID of the bulk export.
--api-version=<value> Override the api version used for api requests made by this command
--use-most-recent Use the job ID of the bulk export job that was most recently run.
GLOBAL FLAGS
--flags-dir=<value> Import flag values from a directory.
--json Format output as json.
DESCRIPTION
Resume a bulk export job that you previously started. Uses Bulk API 2.0.
When the original "data export bulk" command either times out or is run with the --async flag, 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.
EXAMPLES
Resume a bulk export job run on your default org by specifying a job ID:
$ sf data export resume --job-id 750xx000000005sAAA
Resume the most recently-run bulk export job for an org with alias my-scratch:
$ sf data export resume --use-most-recent --target-org my-scratch
See code: src/commands/data/export/resume.ts
sf data export tree
Export data from an org into one or more JSON files.
USAGE
$ sf data export tree -o <value> -q <value>... [--json] [--flags-dir <value>] [--api-version <value>] [-p] [-x
<value>] [-d <value>]
FLAGS
-d, --output-dir=<value> Directory in which to generate the JSON files; default is current directory.
-o, --target-org=<value> (required) Username or alias of the target org. Not required if the `target-org`
configuration variable is already set.

-x, --prefix=<value> Prefix of generated files.
--api-version=<value> Override the api version used for api requests made by this command
GLOBAL FLAGS
--flags-dir=<value> Import flag values from a directory.
--json Format output as json.
DESCRIPTION
Export data from an org into one or more JSON files.
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).
ALIASES
$ sf force data tree export
$ sf data export beta tree
EXAMPLES
Export records retrieved with the specified SOQL query into a single JSON file in the current directory; the command
uses your default org:
$ sf 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:
$ sf 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":
$ sf data export tree --query query.txt --plan --prefix export-demo --output-dir export-out --target-org \
my-scratch
See code: src/commands/data/export/tree.ts

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

DESCRIPTION
Bulk import records into a Salesforce object from a CSV file. Uses Bulk API 2.0.
You can use this command to import millions of records into the object from 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.
Bulk imports can take a while, depending on how many records are in the CSV file. If the command times out, or you
specified the --async flag, the command displays the job ID. To see the status and get the results of the job, run "sf
data import 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
Import Account records from a CSV-formatted file into an org with alias "my-scratch"; if the import doesn't complete
in 10 minutes, the command ends and displays a job ID:
$ sf data import bulk --file accounts.csv --sobject Account --wait 10 --target-org my-scratch
Import asynchronously and use the default org; the command immediately returns a job ID that you then pass to the
"sf data import resume" command:
$ sf data import bulk --file accounts.csv --sobject Account --async

When the original "sf data import bulk" command either times out or is run with the --async flag, it displays a job
ID. To see the status and get the results of the bulk import, run this command by either passing it the job ID or
using the --use-most-recent flag to specify the most recent bulk import job.
EXAMPLES
Resume a bulk import job to your default org using an ID:
$ sf data import resume --job-id 750xx000000005sAAA
Resume the most recently run bulk import job for an org with alias my-scratch:
$ sf data import resume --use-most-recent --target-org my-scratch
See code: src/commands/data/import/resume.ts
sf data import tree
Import data from one or more JSON files into an org.
USAGE
$ sf data import tree -o <value> [--json] [--flags-dir <value>] [--api-version <value>] [-f <value>...] [-p <value>]
FLAGS
-f, --files=<value>... Comma-separated and in-order JSON files that contain the records, in sObject tree format,
that you want to insert.
-o, --target-org=<value> (required) Username or alias of the target org. Not required if the `target-org`
configuration variable is already set.
-p, --plan=<value> Plan definition file to insert multiple data files.
--api-version=<value> Override the api version used for api requests made by this command
GLOBAL FLAGS
--flags-dir=<value> Import flag values from a directory.
--json Format output as json.
DESCRIPTION
Import data from one or more JSON files into an org.
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.
ALIASES
$ sf force data tree import
$ sf data import beta tree
EXAMPLES
Import the records contained in two JSON files into the org with alias "my-scratch":
$ sf data import tree --files Contact.json,Account.json --target-org my-scratch
Import records using a plan definition file into your default org:
$ sf data import tree --plan Account-Contact-plan.json
FLAG DESCRIPTIONS
-p, --plan=<value> 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

sf data query
Execute a SOQL query.
USAGE
$ sf data query -o <value> [--json] [--flags-dir <value>] [--api-version <value>] [-q <value>] [-f <value>]
[-t | -b] [-w <value> ] [--async ] [--all-rows] [-r human|csv|json]
FLAGS
-b, --bulk Use Bulk API 2.0 to run the query.
-f, --file=<value> File that contains the SOQL query.
-o, --target-org=<value> (required) Username or alias of the target org. Not required if the `target-org`
configuration variable is already set.
-q, --query=<value> SOQL query to execute.
-r, --result-format=<option> [default: human] Format to display the results; the --json flag overrides this flag.
<options: human|csv|json>
-t, --use-tooling-api Use Tooling API so you can run queries on Tooling API objects.

DESCRIPTION
Execute a SOQL 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, specify the --bulk flag. The command then runs the query using Bulk
API 2.0, which has higher limits than the default API used by the command.
When using --bulk, the command waits 3 minutes by default for the query to complete. Use the --wait parameter to
specify a different number of minutes to wait, or set --wait to 0 to immediately return control to the terminal. If
you set --wait to 0, or you use the --async flag, or the command simply times out, the command displays an ID. Pass
this ID to the the "data query resume" command using the --bulk-query-id flag to get the results; pass the ID to the
"data resume" command to get the job status.
ALIASES
$ sf force data soql query
EXAMPLES
Specify a SOQL query at the command line; the command uses your default org:
$ sf data query --query "SELECT Id, Name, Account.Name FROM Contact"
Read the SOQL query from a file called "query.txt"; the command uses the org with alias "my-scratch":
$ sf data query --file query.txt --target-org my-scratch
Use Tooling API to run a query on the ApexTrigger Tooling API object:
$ sf data query --query "SELECT Name FROM ApexTrigger" --use-tooling-api
Use Bulk API 2.0 to run a query that returns many rows, and return control to the terminal immediately:
$ sf data query --query "SELECT Id FROM Contact" --bulk --wait 0

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
Specify a SOSL query at the command line; the command uses your default org:
$ sf 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":
$ sf 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:
$ sf data search --file query.txt --target-org my-scratch --result-format csv

Linux it's `LF`.
<options: CRLF|LF>
GLOBAL FLAGS
--flags-dir=<value> Import flag values from a directory.
--json Format output as json.
DESCRIPTION
Bulk update records to an org from a CSV file. Uses Bulk API 2.0.
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, or you
specified the --async flag, 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
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:
$ sf data update bulk --file accounts.csv --sobject Account --wait 10 --target-org my-scratch
Update asynchronously and use the default org; the command immediately returns a job ID that you then pass to the
"sf data update resume" command:
$ sf data update bulk --file accounts.csv --sobject Account --async
See code: src/commands/data/update/bulk.ts
sf data update record
Updates a single record of a Salesforce or Tooling API object.
USAGE

--json Format output as json.
DESCRIPTION
Updates a single record of a Salesforce or Tooling API object.
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.
ALIASES
$ sf force data record update
EXAMPLES
Update the Name field of an Account record with the specified (truncated) ID:
$ sf data update record --sobject Account --record-id 001D0 --values "Name=NewAcme"

DESCRIPTION
Bulk upsert records to an org from a CSV file. Uses Bulk API 1.0.
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 and one or more batches, displays their IDs, 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 force data bulk status" command. A single job can contain many batches, depending on the length of the CSV
file.
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_csv_preparing.htm)
By default, the job runs the batches in parallel, which we recommend. You can run jobs serially by specifying the
--serial flag. But don't process data in serial mode unless you know this would otherwise result in lock timeouts and
you can't reorganize your batches to avoid the locks.
EXAMPLES
Bulk upsert records to the Contact object in your default org:
$ sf --sobject Contact --file files/contacts.csv --external-id Id
Bulk upsert records to a custom object in an org with alias my-scratch and wait 5 minutes for the command to
complete:
$ sf force data bulk upsert --sobject MyObject__c --file files/file.csv --external-id MyField__c --wait 5 \
--target-org my-scratch
