pac solution pack does not include Connectors folder properly #882

Open crsnt opened 1 month ago

crsnt commented 1 month ago

I have a custom connector in the solution.

When I performed unpack + pack solution using pac cli and tried to import to target environment, I got an error:

Connector Import Failed: File Not Found

Upon inspecting the zip content, the packed solution zip is missing Connectors folder.

Looks like when unpacking, the Connector folder was not extracted either and connector was missing in customizations.xml (I believe this is the cause)

If I added the connector manually in customizations.xml and included the Connector folder, the pack seems to include the folder ok.

Was something changed recently?

After troubleshooting with MS support - the CLI unpack seems to have validation around connector name.

We have custom connector that has 45 characters (greater than 30 characters recent validation that MS put in). Even though this can be exported and imported successfully via UI, pac solution unpack fails to unpack the connector.

Is it possible for CLI unpack to remove this limitation?
