Salesforce Pipeline Run: Component Type Selection

 

Warning: Salesforce limits retrieval of deployment of up to 10,000 components.

Component Selection Rules

Pipeline Wizard Rule Filters

This allows you to select which components will be included or excluded in this pipeline run.

Note: The rule order does not matter.

Include Rules

Include Rules specify what components are included.

If no include rules are written, it includes all component types.

If you only specify component types when writing an include rule, it assumes you want all files of that component type.

If you specify field and assign values when writing an include rule, it includes only those that match those values.

These rules are not exclusive. If it matches any include rule, it will be included in the initial data list.

 

  1. Filtering with components: Select components to be filtered



 

2. Filter with Field : Select Field e.g.  Select Component Name as the Field and filename as the value

 

 

3. Filter by “Starts With”, “Equals”, “Ends With” or “Contains”.

Select “ Starts With” filter First and Component Name gets filtered automatically based on the input :

 

  •  The example above shows the Filter selection “Starts With” with the values “acc” and “ap” in the Value textbox. The Component Name, or any selection given in the Field drop down, gets Filtered automatically based on this input

 

3.How to add two rules ? Follow image below.

 

Exclude Rules

Exclude Rules specify what components are excluded after building the initial list from include rules or the entire data set.

If no exclude rules are written, the entire list generated by include rules is included.

If you only specify component types when writing an exclude rule, it excludes all of that component type.

If you specify field and assign values when writing an exclude rule, it excludes only those that match those values.

These rules are not exclusive. If it matches any exclude rule, it will be excluded in the final data list.
