b2c-site-import-export

# Site Archives Use `b2c job import` / `b2c job export` to transfer site archives. If `b2c` is unavailable, use `npx @salesforce/b2c-cli`. ## Configuration and tool choice CLI and MCP share resolved configuration: `SFCC_*` variables (including project `.env`), project/shared `dw.json`, and plugins. `package.json` provides nonsecret defaults. Use `--project-directory` outside the target project. Inspect with `b2c setup inspect --json` or MCP `config_inspect`; keep secrets masked. Configured values normally make credential flags and manual `dw.json` reads unnecessary. For resolution issues, use `b2c-cli:b2c-config`. No dedicated MCP archive-transfer tool exists. Use the CLI for XML imports and exports, including settings absent from SCAPI contracts. MCP `scapi_execute` can manage supported Admin fields; a metadata record alone does not prove that promotion discounts or targeting rules are configured. ## Import and verify 1. Resolve the target site/catalog and intended change. Include only relevant data in the archive; preserve unrelated settings and requested enabled state. 2. Author XML in the platform archive layout. Check the relevant XSD with `b2c docs schema <name>` (list names with `--list`), then validate locally. 3. Import the directory or zip. The command waits by default; `--show-log` shows job logs on failure. Check completion before retrying. 4. Read back the affected fields. If the API omits them, export the matching data unit and inspect the relevant XML records. A successful job alone is insufficient. ```bash b2c job import ./archive --show-log b2c job export --site MySite --site-data campaigns_and_promotions --output ./verification ``` `--site` alone exports all site data; specify `--site-data` for focused work. Directory output retains the platform's generated `*_export` root. Do not overwrite an existing/applied migration. Exports may contain secrets or unrelated defaults; review and trim before committing, preserving XSD-required fields. ## Focused references - Archive layout and XML workflows: [archive workflows](references/WORKFLOWS.md). - Attribute/type XML patterns: [metadata XML](references/METADATA-XML.md). - Remote imports, size splitting, and import-set options: [import options](references/IMPORT-OPTIONS.md). - Export flags, data units, and compact JSON results: the export reference in the `b2c-job` skill. - Ordered migrations, naming, history, and recovery: `b2c-cli:b2c-import-set-migrations`. - Service configuration XML: `b2c:b2c-webservices`. Jobs prefer SCAPI; `--api-backend auto` can fall back to OCAPI on supported rejections. Archive transfer uses WebDAV in either case. For job scopes, backend selection, and monitoring, use the relevant section of `b2c-cli:b2c-job`.
