# data360-schema-get Skill


## Overview

This skill retrieves Data Lake Object (DLO) and Data Model Object (DMO) schema information from Salesforce Data Cloud using the SSOT REST API. It can list all DLOs or DMOs in an org, or retrieve detailed schema for a specific DLO or DMO.

## When to Use

- User wants to see all DLOs or DMOs in a Data Cloud org
- User needs field schema for a specific DLO or DMO
- User is exploring Data Cloud data structures
- User needs to understand DLO or DMO field types and metadata

## Prerequisites

- SF CLI installed and authenticated to target org
- Org has Data Cloud enabled
- User has appropriate Data Cloud permissions

## Skill Execution

### Parameters

1. **org_alias** (required): The SF CLI org alias (e.g., 'afvibe', 'myorg')
2. **dlo_name** (optional): Specific DLO developer name (e.g., 'Employee__dll')
3. **dmo_name** (optional): Specific DMO developer name (e.g., 'Individual__dlm')

### Step 1: Discover Connected Org

First, run `sf org list` to find out which org is connected and extract the alias to use for all subsequent calls:

```bash
sf org list
```

Example output:
```text
┌────┬───────┬──────────────────────────┬────────────────────┬───────────┐
│    │ Alias │ Username                 │ Org Id             │ Status    │
├────┼───────┼──────────────────────────┼────────────────────┼───────────┤
│    │ myorg │ [email protected] │ 00DKZ00000b80NT2AY │ Connected │
└────┴───────┴──────────────────────────┴────────────────────┴───────────┘
```

Extract the **Alias** value (e.g., `myorg`) from the output and use it as the `<org_alias>` for all subsequent calls. Use `--all` to see expired and deleted scratch orgs as well.

### Step 2: Validate SF CLI Authentication

Before making API calls, verify the org is connected:

```bash
sf org display --target-org <org_alias> --json
```

If not connected, inform user to run:
```bash
sf org login web --alias <org_alias>
```

### Step 3a: Execute DLO Schema Script

The Python scripts are bundled with this skill in the `scripts/` subdirectory.

**To list all DLOs:**
```bash
python3 ./scripts/get_dlo_schema.py <org_alias>
```

**To get specific DLO schema:**
```bash
python3 ./scripts/get_dlo_schema.py <org_alias> <dlo_name>
```

### Step 3b: Execute DMO Schema Script

**To list all DMOs:**
```bash
python3 ./scripts/get_dmo_schema.py <org_alias>
```

**To get specific DMO schema:**
```bash
python3 ./scripts/get_dmo_schema.py <org_alias> <dmo_name>
```

### Step 4: Present Results

Parse and present the results in a user-friendly format:

**For DLO List:**
- Show DLO name, label, category, and ID
- Indicate total count
- Highlight DLOs with data (totalRecords > 0)

**For DLO Schema:**
- Show basic info (name, label, category, status)
- List all fields with:
  - Field name
  - Data type
  - Primary key indicator
  - Nullable status
- Highlight custom fields (exclude system fields like DataSource__c, cdp_sys_*)
- Show record count if available

**For DMO List:**
- Show DMO name, label, category, and ID
- Indicate total count

**For DMO Schema:**
- Show basic info (name, label, category, description)
- List all fields with:
  - Field name
  - Data type
  - Primary key indicator
  - Nullable status
- Show dataspace information if available

### Step 5: Offer Next Steps

After displaying results, suggest relevant follow-up actions:
- Query data from the DLO
- Create calculated insights
- Build segments
- Set up data streams
- Create DMO mappings

## API Endpoints Used

### List All DLOs
```text
GET /services/data/v64.0/ssot/data-lake-objects
```

Response structure:
```json
{
  "dataLakeObjects": [
    {
      "name": "Employee__dll",
      "label": "Employee",
      "category": "Profile",
      "id": "1dlXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
      "status": "ACTIVE",
      "totalRecords": 12,
      "fields": [...]
    }
  ],
  "totalSize": 5
}
```

### Get DLO Schema
```text
GET /services/data/v64.0/ssot/data-lake-objects/{dlo_name}
```

Response structure (same as individual object in list response, but wrapped in paginated format).

### List All DMOs
```text
GET /services/data/v64.0/ssot/data-model-objects
```

Response structure:
```json
{
  "dataModelObjects": [
    {
      "name": "Individual__dlm",
      "label": "Individual",
      "category": "Profile",
      "id": "0dmXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
      "fields": [...]
    }
  ],
  "totalSize": 10
}
```

### Get DMO Schema
```text
GET /services/data/v64.0/ssot/data-model-objects/{dmo_name}
```

Response structure (same as individual object in list response, but wrapped in paginated format).

## Error Handling

**Common Issues:**

1. **Org not connected**
   - Message: "Org not connected"
   - Solution: Ask user to authenticate via SF CLI

2. **DLO not found**
   - Message: "DLO 'XYZ__dll' not found"
   - Solution: List all DLOs first to verify name

5. **DMO not found**
   - Message: "DMO 'XYZ__dlm' not found"
   - Solution: List all DMOs first to verify name

3. **Permission issues**
   - Message: HTTP 403 errors
   - Solution: Verify user has Data Cloud permissions

4. **API version mismatch**
   - Current: v64.0
   - Solution: Script can be updated for newer API versions
