creating an object in the UI, then changing the startsWith property in the UI, and then pulling, causes an unsolvable tracking issue

[defabien]

Summary

creating an object in the UI, then changing the startsWith property in the UI, and then pulling, causes an unsolvable tracking issue

unpackaged/package.xml Entity of type 'CustomObject' named 'Invoice' cannot be found

so instead of it trying to pull 'Invoice__c', it tries to pull 'Invoice' and keeps failing

Steps To Reproduce

• create object Invoice__c in the salesforce UI
• change startsWith Invoice__c property in the salesforce UI (IMPORTANT: don't retrieve up until here)
• retrieve via sf cli
• get unpackaged/package.xml Entity of type 'CustomObject' named 'Invoice' cannot be found

Expected result

no 'unpackaged/package.xml Entity of type 'CustomObject' named 'Invoice' cannot be found' error

Actual result

'unpackaged/package.xml Entity of type 'CustomObject' named 'Invoice' cannot be found' error

Hey @defabien I am not seeing this issue. I am also using version 2.62.6. What is the exact command you are using to retrieve? Are you able to replicate this with a copy of Dreamhouse?

Hi @iowillhoit,

The command I am using is

sf project retrieve start -o spr-so-dev -c
