CLI export columns are in all caps #1095

Closed ImranMoTown closed 6 months ago

ImranMoTown commented 6 months ago

When I export data using the DataLoader command line interface, all the column names of the exported data are in all caps. This presents a problem since the systems that I am importing in are case sensitive. I have tried using the sdl file to lower case them but even export columns defined in the sdl file are uppercased in the output.

I would expect the output column headers to match the case of the Salesforce API name of the column

Hi @ImranMoTown , to be sure of your ask, do you want the header columns of the exported data through a SOQL extraction operation to be case sensitive?

ImranMoTown commented 6 months ago

If I have a salesforce field with API name "EmployeeIDc" it appears as a header in my exported csv file as "EMPLOYEEIDC". I would like it to have the same casing as the field name in salesforce. So the column header should be "EmployeeID__c"

Got it. I have checked in the fix to address the issue. It will be available in the next release of data loader, most likely v61.0.0, available with Summer '24 release.
