RecordType field dependencies

[sinanbunni]

Hi, Recently I came through a requirements to search for a custom and standard recordTypeId or recordType.Name dependencies in an org's metadata. Looking at a feature to support it in HappySoup. Thanks

Hi @sinanbunni !

Thanks for reaching out. Would this be for a specific record type (i.e Account.Customer_Type) or any reference to recordTypeId?

Also if you could explain more of why you needed this, it'd help me understand the requirement better.

Hi @pgonzaleznetwork, The org has a number of custom sObjects where each has 5-8 record types. The record types are being used in many OOTB (PBs, Flows, Approval Processes, etc..) and Custom Apex/Aura components code to drive business functionalities. The requirements in hands are to get rid of these record types and some of its associated metadata and re-design the org to meet new objectives.

I was able to pull the RecordTypeId and RecordType.Name using VSC, however, its tedious as I have find the dependencies boundaries and where specifically the RecordType field is being used.

Thanks

Hi @pgonzaleznetwork , I have the same use case as @sinanbunni. My org wants to rename record types. Thus, I need to see if changing the names will have any impact on other config/dev.

Thank you @jamienrogers222 , I still plan to look into this in the future!

I am in favor of this one as well as I have come into a company that changed through several administrators with their own approaches. I would like to use this feature to do some cleaning up.
