Issue while trying to create Person Accounts in Salesforce with snowfakery recipe and Cumulus CI

[jorgesolebur]

Hello

I am trying to create a simple recipe to load PersonAccounts in Salesforce:

- plugin: snowfakery.standard_plugins.Salesforce
- plugin: snowfakery.standard_plugins.Salesforce.SalesforceQuery

- object: Account
  fields:
    FirstName:
      fake: FirstName
    LastName:
      fake: LastName
    PersonMailingStreet:
      fake: StreetAddress
    PersonMailingCity:
      fake: City
    PersonContactId:
      Salesforce.SpecialObject: PersonContact

However when I run this using cumulusCI with the following command:

cci task run generate_and_load_from_yaml --org dev --bulk-mode SERIAL --generator_yaml snowflake/campaign/campaign.yaml --working_directory ./tmp/ 

I get the following error from the command:

[04/28/22 15:08:59] Field Contact.IsPersonAccount is not present or does not have the correct permissions.   

I have verified and PersonAccounts is enabled in my org, and I have tested the creation of 1 person account through UI and I can successfully create one. I am attaching the yaml file and the tmp yaml files generated. How are person accounts created? Are you first creating an account, then creating a contact for that account and updating Contact.isPesonAccount = true? I do not think that will work

Thanks in advance Archive.zip

If you would like to attempt the load regardless, you can specify '-o drop_missing_schema True' on the command.

I believe this is a bug but I also think you can work around it by specifying -o drop_missing_schema True. That worked for me.

Thanks @prescod , I will give a try. Quick question - which command should I use among the 2 below? I am confused because both of them do similar things:

cci task run snowfakery 

or

cci task run generate_and_load_from_yaml

Thanks for the advice !

[prescod]

Snowfakery is the more modern command and highly performant/scalable.

generate_and_load_from_yaml is simpler and slower at scale, but occasionally more reliable/understandable in weird situations for those same reasons.

This is admittedly a bit of a mess and I will endeavour to improve the reliability/understandability of the snowfakery task until the old one is never needed anymore. The old one may also be faster for small datasets.

Great, thanks for the input
