getting-datacloud-schema lists or details Salesforce Data Cloud DLO and DMO schemas via SF CLI scripts.
About
The getting-datacloud-schema skill retrieves Data Lake Object and Data Model Object schema from Salesforce Data Cloud using SSOT REST APIs via bundled Python scripts. Parameters are required org_alias plus optional dlo_name or dmo_name. Execution discovers connected org with sf org list, validates authentication via sf org display, then runs get_dlo_schema.py or get_dmo_schema.py from the skill scripts directory using absolute skill_dir paths not relative ./scripts. List mode shows all DLOs or DMOs with labels, categories, IDs, and record counts; detail mode returns field names, data types, primary key flags, and nullable status while highlighting custom fields over system cdp_sys fields. Error handling covers disconnected orgs, not-found objects, permission 403s, and API version v64.0 notes. After results it suggests follow-ups like querying data, calculated insights, segments, data streams, or DMO mappings. Error handling covers disconnected orgs, not-found objects, and HTTP 403 permissions.
- sf org list discovers alias; sf org display validates auth.
- Scripts live in skill_dir/scripts; never use relative ./scripts paths.
- List or detail schema for DLOs and DMOs via SSOT v64.0 APIs.
- Field output highlights custom fields and excludes cdp_sys noise.
- Suggests segments, insights, and data stream next steps after schema.

What fields and types exist on this Data Cloud DLO or DMO in my org?
Retrieve Salesforce Data Cloud DLO and DMO schema via SF CLI and bundled Python scripts.
Who is it for?
Data Cloud users exploring DLO and DMO structures before queries or mappings.
Skip if: Skip for non-Data Cloud orgs or schema outside Salesforce SSOT data lake or model objects.
When should I use this skill?
User asks for Data Cloud schema, DLO fields, DMO metadata, or lists objects in an org.
What you get
Formatted DLO or DMO list or field schema with types, keys, and record counts.
- DLO listings
- DMO field schemas
- REST metadata responses

getting-datacloud-schema 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:
sf org listExample output:
┌────┬───────┬──────────────────────────┬────────────────────┬───────────┐
│ │ Alias │ Username │ Org Id │ Status │
├────┼───────┼──────────────────────────┼────────────────────┼───────────┤
│ 🍁 │ myorg │ chandresh@afvidedemo.org │ 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:
sf org display --target-org <org_alias> --jsonIf not connected, inform user to run:
sf org login web --alias <org_alias>Step 3a: Execute DLO Schema Script
The Python scripts are bundled with this skill. They live in the scripts/ subdirectory of the same directory that contains this SKILL.md file. Use the absolute path to that directory — do NOT use ./scripts/ as that resolves relative to the current working directory, not the skill directory.
To list all DLOs:
python3 <skill_dir>/scripts/get_dlo_schema.py <org_alias>To get specific DLO schema:
python3 <skill_dir>/scripts/get_dlo_schema.py <org_alias> <dlo_name>Step 3b: Execute DMO Schema Script
To list all DMOs:
python3 <skill_dir>/scripts/get_dmo_schema.py <org_alias>To get specific DMO schema:
python3 <skill_dir>/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

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
