[QUESTION] - SFDMU Users, GroupMember, etc #696

MichaelPStimpson commented 7 months ago

Hello, I'm just starting to work with this tool and I see the documentation says it does not support User, Group, Profile, or DandBCompany!

I'm looking to create users and group member records in addition to other tables and I'd like to use SFDMU as much as possible through out the process! Is there a recommended alternative tooling option?

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to me.

It's correct, these objects are not supported by the Sfdmu for migration. But they still can be used with Readonly operation to serve lookup parent values for other objects.

For alternative free tooling solutions for transferring these objects, consider using any other tools, like a standard sf dataloader or “sf data import tree” CLI command. Dataloader does not support relationships between objects. Data tree import - yes, however it requires more complex setup and it is not aimed for use with complex data migration scenarios ( in comparison to the sfdmu ).

Cheers.
