Service Cloud Feature Config APIs + CLI
Use This Skill When
- You need to convert a Service Cloud requirement into exact API surface and
sfCLI commands. - You are building an implementation backlog that separates metadata, data-only, and UI-only configuration.
- You need deployment-safe packaging guidance for mixed Service Cloud features.
Core Workflow
- Classify each feature
- Tag as
metadata-deployable,data API only, orsetup UI only. - Capture API type (
Metadata,REST,SOAP,Tooling) and deploy path.
- Tag as
- Map to deploy units
- Group metadata by type for atomic deploys (for example:
CaseSettings,AssignmentRules,QueueRoutingConfig). - Keep high-risk changes in isolated deploy batches.
- Group metadata by type for atomic deploys (for example:
- Map data-only operations
- Define seed/import/update strategy for records such as
Macro,QuickText, survey records, and other non-metadata entities.
- Define seed/import/update strategy for records such as
- Generate execution plan
- Produce ordered
sf project deploy start --metadata ...commands. - Add post-deploy data operations and verification checks.
- Produce ordered
- Add rollback + validation
- Define validation commands and smoke tests by feature area.
- Add rollback handling for metadata and data separately.
Deliverables
- Feature-to-API/CLI matrix for requested scope.
- Ordered deployment runbook with
sfcommands. - Data-only seeding and validation plan.
- Top dependency risks and mitigation actions.
