Creating Custom Metadata Entries from CSV with SFDX:

For administrators and developers, custom metadata holds immense power due to its simplicity during setup, providing a versatile tool for handling intricate Apex/Flow scenarios.

What if there was a method to generate metadata entries from a CSV file? Look no further than leveraging SFDX, Salesforce's command-line interface (CLI) tool.

Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Begin by ensuring you've retrieved all the metadata field and object definitions from your Salesforce Org to your local environment.
2. Utilize the following command to create the metadata records on your local machine.
3. Once generated, seamlessly deploy them to your Salesforce org.

Please note: The metadata records are formed within your local Salesforce project folder, using the field definitions acquired in step 1.

?? Use the following command to create metadata records from CSV:

sfdx cmdt generate records --csv <path_to_csv_file> --type-name <Custom_Metadata_API_Name>        

Pro Tip: Consider adopting 'sf' instead of 'sfdx' to future-proof your commands, as 'sfdx' may be deprecated in the future.
