Common Errors and Warnings for Salesforce

    Account Access

    Invalid Token Provided. Please refresh this page to sign in.
    • Reason: When the application session expires, the user will be logged out and presented with the login screen again. This error occurs when a login attempt is made without refreshing the browser first.
    • Solution: Refresh the browser and re-select the region and log in again.
    Unable to write to storage. Please check your key management service
    • Reason: The AWS BYOKMS configuration is not allowing write permissions via the provided key/alias.
    • Solution: Consult with your AWS expert to review the KMS and User configuration.

    Backup

    Invalid Credentials: unable to connect the service to Salesforce
    • Reason 1: Connected the OAuth app blocked
    • Solution:
      • In Salesforce--> Setup > Apps > Connected Apps > Connected Apps OAuth Usage page.
      • Verify the "Block" button next to Own for Salesforce (Data service), or (Metadata service) is not selected.
    • Reason 2: Salesforce IP restrictions - IP Restrictions are set in Salesforce and our application IP addresses need to be white-listed in Salesforce.
    • Solution: Verify the relevant IP addresses are white-listed at the Org level and profile level of the authenticated user assigned to the service.
    • Reason 3: Custom Domain - If a custom domain is enabled and defined as the only way to log in to your org at the Salesforce login screen.
    • Solution: Select the “Custom domain” option before entering the username/password to authenticate the service. Read more about Custom Domain setting in Salesforce.
    User Not Authorized / INSUFFICIENT_ACCESS: insufficient access rights on cross-reference id.
    • Reason 1: No "Modify All Data" Permission
    • Solution: Verify that the authenticated user has the “ModifyAllData” permission. In addition, check to see if the authenticated user has appropriate access to the specified object and all referenced objects.
    • Reason 2: Sandbox Re-authentication - A Sandbox environment was refreshed recently, and now the backups are failing.
    • Solution:
      • Select the Failed Sandbox Service and then the “Re-authenticate Service” option.
      • Log in with the authenticated user’s username/password. If you have a custom domain ensure you use this prior to entering the credentials.
      • Once completed a new Sandbox Service box will appear on the Backup page. 
      • If the service is not displayed on the Backup page, ensure the service is not listed under the Archived tab in the application You may Unarchive it directly from the Archived page into active-backup status.
    Sorry, this Salesforce Org has already been taken.
    • Reason: This Salesforce Org is already connected as a service with another active user account.
    • Solution: If you are unable to locate the owner of this account or believe this message is in error, please contact Support.
    Invalid Query Locator
    • Reason 1: Too many threads (limit is 10) are being requested by the user at a given time.
    • Solution:
      • Dedicate an authenticated user to the application, thusly avoiding other requests being used by the currently authenticated user for other Salesforce requests.
      • Consider separate dedicated authenticated users for Data and Metadata services on the same Salesforce Org.
      • Salesforce 'INVALID_QUERY_LOCATOR ' error article link
    • Reason 2: A thread request started by the application has expired in Salesforce and is no longer responding to further queries.
    • Solution: These warnings are temporary and don’t require any action and should resolve on their own
    Failed to process query: OPERATION TOO LARGE
    • Reason: No "View All Data" and" Modify All Data" Permissions and the query has exceeded 100000 distinct ids
    • Solution: Verify that the authenticated user has the "ViewAllData" and “ModifyAllData” permission. In addition, check to see if the authenticated user has appropriate access to the specified object and all referenced objects.
    MALFORMED_QUERY
    • Reason: No "View All Data" and" Modify All Data" Permissions
    • Solution: Verify that the authenticated user has the "ViewAllData" and “ModifyAllData” permission. In addition, check to see if the authenticated user has appropriate access to the specified object and all referenced objects.
    File Download Limit Reached / API Download limit reached
    • Reason: Some of the indexed files, attachments, content documents, content versions have not been downloaded to the backups.
    • Solution:
      • The default limit is set to 5,000 files per backup which can be increased to 300,000 files. See this article for more on setting limits.
      • Check API consumption in Salesforce: Setup > System Overview > API Requests. Review the Maximum amount of calls your org is allowed within 24 hours.
    Some objects could not be backed up: Auth Provider (for MetaData Service).
    • Reason: The Manage Auth. Providers definition is set to "Raise session to High Assurance" (in Setup-> Identity Verification)
    • Solution:
      1. In Salesforce navigate to: Setup > Apps > Connected Apps > Connected Apps OAuth Usage page.
      2. Click "Install" Own for Salesforce Metadata App\Salesforce Sandbox Metadata App
      3. Once installed, click Manage App Policies and edit the App.
      4. Navigate to High assurance session required and check Raise the session level to high assurance and click Save.
      5. Navigate to: Setup > Session Settings > Session Security Levels and verify that Multi-Factor Authentication & Username Password moved to the High Assurance list. 
      6. Return to your Own account and re-authenticate the service.
    API_DISABLED_FOR_ORG
    • Reason 1: The Salesforce org doesn’t support API access. API Access is available for Enterprise, Unlimited, Performance, and Developer edition organizations. In this scenario, the Data service will be successful in backup, but the Metadata service will fail with this error message. 
    • Solution: Contact Salesforce support if you believe your organization should have API access, and you’re getting an API_DISABLED_FOR_ORG error
    • Reason 2: The authenticated user does not have the API feature enabled. 
    • Solution:
    REQUEST_LIMIT_EXCEEDED
    • Reason: This Salesforce error is usually returned when the API quota has been exceeded. 
    • Solution: 
      • Check API consumption in Salesforce: Setup > System Overview > API Requests. Review the Maximum amount of calls your org is allowed within 24 hours for both REST and Bulk.
      • Contact Salesforce support if you believe your organization should have sufficient API count in the timeframe of receiving this message. For more on this please read here.
    QUERY_TIMEOUT "Salesforce Error: QUERY_TIMEOUT Your query request was running for too long"
    • Reason 1: The object is too large to be queried via the REST API and needs to leverage the Bulk API.
    • Solution: Configure Bulk API limits via the Service Options screen.
    • Reason 2: If the "Unlisted Chatter Groups" is enabled and permission is not granted. Feed Items and Feed Attachments are particular objects that are susceptible to this error.
    • Solution: Enable the manage unlisted groups, permission on the profile of the authenticated user.
    Bulk Error: Script Internal Error
    • Reason: An optimized object being queried by the Bulk API via the primary key chunking method is error and has not been backed up.
    • Solution: Contact our Support to further investigate.
    Service Backup Failed - API is Disabled for user
    • Reason: The profile permission of the authenticated user’s profile cannot connect to the Salesforce API.
    • Solution:
    Service Backup Failed - INSUFFICIENT_ACCESS - ModifyAllData or ModifyMetadata permissions required
    • Reason: No "Modify All Data" Permission
    • Solution:
      • Verify that the authenticated user has the “ModifyAllData” permission. In addition, check to see if the authenticated user has appropriate access to the specified object and all referenced objects.
      • Salesforce User Permission article link.
    Service Backup Failed - Connected Applications connected_applications fail Bulk batch ended with state Failed and message: InvalidBatch: Failed to process query: INSUFFICIENT_ACCESS: insufficient access rights on cross-reference id.
    • Reason: No Customize Application permission to the Authenticated User.
    • Solution:
    Unable to retrieve metadata object
    • Reason: Sometimes, the Salesforce Metadata API is unable to query certain metadata objects.
    • Solution: These warnings are temporary and don’t require any action and should resolve on its own.
    Insufficient access to the specified data category
    • Reason: In Lightning for Salesforce, data categories are used in communities. A particular category is marked as invalid.
    • Solution:
      • Log in to Salesforce > Setup
      • Go to Quick Find and search “Data Categories”. Review the Category Groups and review which categories are marked as active/inactive. 
      • Verify the data categories that are needed to be active are marked as active so the communities can be retrievable through the API and accessible through the authenticated user on the service.
    sObject not sorted by Id:
    • Reason: We use REST APIs to request data from Salesforce, which are sorted by the RecordId when using the Compare, Restore and Replicate tools. Certain objects are not sortable due to Salesforce limitations, therefore they are excluded in these tools. 
    • Solution:
      • The particular sObject is not sortable.
      • The object is still backed up and available in the backups.
    Messaging Sessions  Bulk Error: Salesforce Error
    • Reason: This is a known Salesforce issue that can be found here.
    • Solution: Enable 'Access Conversation Entries' under Administrative Permissions for the authenticated user.

    You have reached the API download limit for this service

    (downloaded {} files out of {} files available)

    • Reason: The API limit has been reached. We download the number of files (up to the API limit). We only download the new and changed files.
    • Solution: The remaining files will be downloaded the following day once the daily API limit resets.

    Content Documents: Salesforce Error: invalid character encoding.

    • Reason: A Non-UTF-8 character(s) were used in the Content Document which is incompatible with the Salesforce API. 
    • Solution: The backup error is related to the Salesforce FileExtension field for the ContentDocument object.
      This field might cause backup issues and can be safely excluded as it is a nillable Salesforce field that is not required for data restore. Despite excluding this field, your backups will still include the FileExtension value in the FileType field. Please exclude the FileExtension from the ContentDocument object for future backups to resolve this issue.
      You can do so from the Backup Exclusions page in the backup service, as follows:
      In the New Rule, Field, enter the term ContentDocument.FileExtension and submit.
    Content Documents: Salesforce Error:  content_documents fail Bulk PK Error.
    • Examples and Reasons:
    1. content_documents   fail   Bulk PK Error 

    Object backup has failed due to an unexpected error, please run a manual backup or wait for the next scheduled backup. If issue is not resolved, please contact support.

    1. Content Versions content_versions warning   Failed downloading 18 files
    • Solution:

    Add the field exclusion ‘ContentDocument FileExtension’. This field exclusion can be found within the specific service on the left panel. This does not impact file itself, it only excludes the FileExtension field which contains the file extension that’s preventing the record from being backed up.

    The file can still be restored and downloaded via the Find tool in the original format. Once the FileExtension field has been excluded, wait until the next backup, to review if the solution has worked and has allowed the downloading of the previously blocked content documents.

    Timeout Error too many errors in request #1- Warning for “Knowledge Article Versions” and “Knowledge KAVs”
    • Reason: Due to missing permissions for the authenticated user.
    • Solution: Grant the following permissions to the authenticated user:
      • View Draft Articles
      • View Archived Articles
    • If the error still persists, please contact our Support
    Too Many Requests: The user has sent too many requests in a given amount of time. 
    • Reason: A query has failed to archive multiple records and therefore stopped the archiving activity.
    • Solutions: Disable the trigger or validation rule that is inhibiting the Policy from deleting these records.
    • If the issue is due to dependency, Archive the referenced dependency first before archiving this record.

    Continuous Data Protection

    Failed to capture events due to an authentication error. Reauthenticate the service.
    • Reason: The service is unable to connect to Salesforce.
    • Solution: Reauthenticate the service. Once the service is reauthenticated, click Retry to get the stream back online.
    Failed to capture events due to configuration of: [object]. Check your CDC entities in Salesforce.
    • Reason 1: Object is not in Salesforce CDC entities.
    • Solution: Go to Salesforce > Change Data Capture and add the missing entities. After adding the entities back in CDC, click Retry to get the stream back online. 
    • Reason 2: The object name does not match the Salesforce API naming convention.
    • Solution: In Salesforce, navigate to Setup > Change Data Capture. Copy the API names exactly as written in Salesforce.
    Failed to capture events. Pub/Sub API limit reached.
    • Reason: Reached the Pub/Sub API limit set in Salesforce.
    • Solution: 
      • The stream will return online once the Pub/Sub API quota is reset.
      • If you raised the Pub/Sub API quota, click Retry to get the stream back online.
    Failed to capture events. REST API limit reached.
    • Reason: Reached the REST API limit set in Salesforce.
    • Solution:
      • ​​​​​​​​​​​The stream will return online once the Pub/Sub API quota is reset.
      • If you raised the Pub/Sub API quota, click Retry to get the stream back online.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     


    Restore, Replicate, Seeding, Anonymize, Archive, Unarchive

    INVALID_CROSS_REFERENCE_KEY
    • Reason 1: INVALID_CROSS_REFERENCE_KEY: Record Type ID: This ID value is not valid for the user. The authenticated user does not have the correct permission to the Record Type.
    • Solution: Verify the authenticated user has the correct permission to the Record Type provided in the error.
    • Reason 2: INVALID_CROSS_REFERENCE_KEY: invalid cross-reference id: The Parent record is not included in the Replication job or permission issue(s) on the parent object or a lookup relationship is not included in the Replication job.
    • Solution: Verify the parent object is included in the replication job. Review the authenticated user has access to the parent record that is referenced within the error. If it is a lookup relationship ensure the parent object is included in the replication job.
    ENTITY_IS_DELETED
    • Reason 1: This error occurs in Salesforce when at least one record references a deleted record in the destination org.
    • Solution: Check that the record does not reference to a deleted record (could also be the record’s parent) in the destination org. 
    • Solution 2: If you manually deleted data to the sandbox since the last seed, we may not be aware of these changes. For the application to know what records exist in the selected sandbox, you need to run a reindexing process by clicking Seed in the template builder, and following the steps in the Seed popup. You can select to index the template objects (recommended), or all the destination objects. Indexing all destination objects will increase the duration of the seed.
    CANNOT_INSERT_UPDATE_ACTIVATE_ENTITY
    • Reason: Occurs when an object has a trigger and data being updated or created causes the trigger to run and error out.  More specifically, it is called an Unhandled Exception.  
    • Solution: 
      • Change the Apex code to handle exceptions
      • Disabling the trigger (you may need to reach out to the vendor if the trigger is part of a managed package
      • Exclude the records that are causing the trigger to run
    CANNOT_UPDATE_CONVERTED_LEAD
    • Reason: Salesforce does not allow updating data of a converted lead.  
    • Solution: 
      • Use the filter: “converted” EQUAL TO “No” to exclude converted leads from the seeding template.
    INVALID_OR_NULL_FOR_RESTRICTED_PICKLIST:Status: bad value for restricted picklist field
    • Reason 1: When attempting to restore, unarchive, or seed, the live or destination org does not have the value enabled that is selected in the backup or source environment. This can be a common error as environments evolve over time and may change the possible pick-list values that are available to be selected upon record creation. 
    • Solution: If the object(s) have multiple record types enabled in the source environment, then the value for the record type in the destination environment must be also be enabled.
    • If the object does not have a record type enabled then the pick-list value for the object In the destination environment should be enabled.
    • Reason 2: The source org data set contains a, no longer active picklist value. This will prevent you from successfully restoring and seeding data. Please clean the data and update the value to a current active value
    • Solution: Go to Setup, <Object>, Fields and Relationships, Select the PL Field and view the inactive values.
    'INACTIVE_OWNER_OR_USER'
    • Reason: The owner of the record in the source environment is disabled in the destination environment.  
    • Solution 1: Enable the “Set Audit Fields and Update Records with Inactive Owners “ Permission. Once this setting has been enabled, create a permission set or edit the profile of the authenticated user and give them the 'Update Records with Inactive Owners' permission. You can enable this permission by using the following Salesforce knowledge article.  
      Solution 2: Activate the record owner in the destination environment.
    DUPLICATES_DETECTED” or “DUPLICATE_VALUE: duplicate value found
    • Reason: Salesforce found a matching value in a unique identifier field when inserting/updating a record.  
    • Solution 1: Delete the duplicate records in the destination. 
      Solution 2: Disable duplicate rules in your Salesforce organization - See this article.                                    Solution 3: If this is a Partial Sandbox that contains records that we inserted via Salesforce refresh, you need to run a reindexing process by clicking Seed in the template builder, and following the steps in the Seed popup. This allows us to know what records exist in the selected sandbox.You can select to index the template objects (recommended), or all the destination objects. Indexing all destination objects will increase the duration of the seed.
    FIELD_CUSTOM_VALIDATION_EXCEPTION
    • Reason: If all automations were not disabled before the Replication/Seed job was started, records being seeded don’t meet the requirements of the active automation(s) to allow seeding.
    • Solution 1: Temporarily disable automations before the job begins. Once the job completes re-enable the automations. 

      Solution 2: Modify the template or dataset of records included in the Replication/Seed job that meets the requirements of the active automations.  
      Solution 3: Update the source records to meet the requirement of the automations.

    FIELD_FILTER_VALIDATION_EXCEPTION
    • Reason: The error message "FIELD_FILTER_VALIDATION_EXCEPTION, Value does not exist or does not match filter criteria," occurs when there are Lookup Filters defined on an object, and you modify it so that the update doesn't reflect the filter criteria.

    • Solution: Check to see if any filters are defined on the object and make sure any modifications are adhering to the filter criteria. You can check if there are any filters on the object by following the steps described in this Salesforce Help page.

    FAILED_ACTIVATION
    • Reason: Failed to activate/re-enable automations on the Order object.
      1. Check for permissions to manage and change flows.
      2. Unable to change Apex triggers.
    • Solution: Confirm the following permissions are assigned to the integration user
      1. Author Apex
      2. Customize Application
      3. Manage Flow
    FIELD_INTEGRITY_EXCEPTION
    • Reason: Failed attempt to insert records due to the wrong object ID in the destination record’s lookup field.
    • Solution: Validate the object ID being inserted in the destination org record’s lookup field.
    SKIP_INSERT
    • Reason: A record cannot be inserted because of a dependency that has not been met but is required. For example, a lookup to a parent that does not exist.
    • Solution: Check for the data inclusion of the parent record.
    STRING_TOO_LONG
    • Reason: Field Exceeds Field Size Limit.  See Help Article.
    • Solution: Review the data in the source org and/or update the field size limit.
    INVALID_FIELD_FOR_INSERT_UPDATE
    • Reason: Trying to anonymize Person Account while the Anonymization template contains replacement value for "Name" field that is not editable.
    • Solution: To anonymize Person Accounts, set replacement values for FirstName and LastName while skipping the Name field.
    INVALID_FIELD: Failed to deserialize at col {number}
    • Reason: A file is missing from the backup, therefore it could not be restored during the job.
    • Solution: Check whether all files/attachments were backed up in the source backup.
    SF_BATCH_FAILED: adding synthetic line to results file
    • Reason: A record included in the Bulk restore failed to be inserted in the destination environment.
    • Solution: Review the resulting log file for more information on the error.

    Archive

    Error Access denied for Archiver backend. Please contact support
    • Reason: Salesforce is migrating your data from their private clouds to AWS public clouds.
    • Solution: Enable the Hyperforce settings by following the steps outlined in Own Archive - Hyperforce.
    Get Organization Storage Statistics operation encountered an error, please contact support and provide them with the following Error code - 10076#10035#10200 
    • Reason: The authentication token has been revoked or IP access is blocked to the Archive backend servers.
    • Solution 1: Verify Archive is installed properly via this article. 
    • Solution 2: Review IP restrictions and ensure access to the Archive servers is white-listed.
    This site can't be reached. app1.archive.owndata.com unexpectedly closed the connection. 
    • ​​Reason​​: A firewall is blocking owndata.com domain and failing the re-authentication process.
    • ​​Solution​​: If this message appears during the onboarding or re-authenticating process, please contact your IT support to check if whitelisting is required to access the Own domain.
       
    Validate Query operation encountered an error
    • Reason: New Org or Refreshed Sandbox hasn't been fully configured.
    • Solution 2: Verify Archive is installed properly via this article. 
    Query time out: [{"message": "Your query request was running for too long.","errorCode":"QUERY_TIMEOUT”}]
    • Reason: The policy created has hit the Salesforce query limitations and cannot execute due to one of more reasons such as the limit being too high, the range too broad, the request is querying too many tables. This happens when the query exceeds the 120-second query time limit in Salesforce.
    • Solution: Lower the limit or decrease the number of objects being queried. Test a problematic query in Workbench to ensure it's executable within 120 seconds.
    Too_many_failures: failures limit crossed
    • Reason: A query has failed to archive records due to a trigger, dependency, or validation rule.
    • Solution: Disable the trigger or validation rule that is inhibiting the Policy from deleting this record. 

      If the issue is due to dependency,  Archive the referenced dependency first before you can archive this record. 

    Failed, Record is considered hot data because it was modified in the last 90 days
    • Reason: Hot data is considered as any data that has been modified within the last 90 days. This is a protection mechanism that can be manually reconfigured from its default "on" state.
    • Solution: Disable hot data protection through Archive settings from the App's homepage and re-run the policy. 
    UNSUPPORTED_APEX_TRIGGER_OPERATION', 'message': 'Apex Event trigger cannot handle batch operations on recurring events.'
    • Reason: Recurring Tasks are unsupported.
    • Solution: When archiving a Task object, set up the query to avoid it, such as: "Select Id From Task Where LastModifiedDate < LAST_N_DAYS: AND IsRecurrence= false Limit 1000"
    INSUFFICIENT_ACCESS_ON_CROSS_REFERENCE_ENTITY:insufficient access rights on cross-reference id: [different record id]
    • Reason: Unarchiving requires a reference to the above record and the authenticated user cannot access it.
    • Solution: Check whether the referenced record exists. If the record exists, check for the authenticated user’s permissions to the record. Verify the authenticated user has the “ModifyAllData” permission. If the error continues to persist, please contact our Support.
    Unable to unarchive Sobject with original Salesforce Id: 01a2B345673rkcaABC Reference IDs already archived:
    • Reason: The record you are trying to unarchive references another archived record. The missing records are listed in the CSV file, under Errors Reported column.
    • Solution 1: Unarchive the parent before unarchiving the child record.
    1. Enter the record ID in the Search tab.
    2. Unarchive the parent record from the Search.
    3. (Re)Unarchive the child record.
      For more information see here.
    • Solution 2: Unarchive by disconnecting the child/parent relationship. 
    1. Enter the record ID in the Search tab.
    2. Export and download the record.
    3. Locate the record ID in the CSV file.
    4. Nullify the field.
    5. Save.
    6. Import the file to Salesforce via an ELT tool.
    7. Purge the record from the Archive database.
    Unable to unarchive Sobject with original Salesforce Id: 01a2B345673rkcaABC. Reference IDs not found:
    • Reason: The record you are trying to unarchive references a record that is no longer in Salesforce nor in Archive. The reference field is: obj.field (API name)
    • Solution: Unarchive by disconnecting the parent/child relationship.
    1. Enter the Record ID in the Search tab.
    2. Export and download the record.
    3. Locate the record ID in the CSV file.
    4. Nullify the field.
    5. Save.
    6. Import the file to Salesforce via an ELT tool.
    7. Purge the record from the Archive database.
    Class.TriggerName
    • Reason: Custom triggers have been set up and are causing Archive/Unarchive errors. 
    • Solution:
      • Disable the trigger during the Archive/Unarchive action.

      • Assign the Authenticated User "bypass triggers" (if the custom triggers were implemented with byPassValidation)

      • Amend the custom trigger logic so that Own Archive can bypass it.

    You can't specify version for namespace sf_com_apps because this namespace is not installed to your organization
    • Reason: Ensure the 'Salesforce Connected Apps' package is installed before installing the OB Archive package.
    • Solution:  
      • Before installing the Archive app, the 'Salesforce Connected Apps' Version 1.7 must already be installed in your environment. To check if you have the app installed with the latest version, navigate to Setup > Installed Packages and search for “Salesforce Connected Apps”
      • If you do not see the package listed in your Installed Packages, simply install the app by adding the following string after the Salesforce URL for your instance: https://mysalesforceurl.com/packagingSetupUI/ipLanding.app?apvId=04t30000001DUxx
    Fail to insert/update policy Upsert failed. First exception on row 0; first error: STORAGE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED, storage limit exceeded: [] 
    • Reason: Your Salesforce environment is beyond its limits and no new records can be created.
    • Solution: Manually delete some records so that Archive can create the record for the archiving policy.
    Connection Reset by Peer Connection Aborted
    • Reason: The issue may be due to temporary connection issues with Salesforce. Archive tries to rerun but gets the same error. Archive will run the policy as scheduled (daily/weekly/monthly basis).
    • Solution: 
    1. Rerun the operation. 
    2. Wait for the next policy run.
    3. Reduce the number of lookups in the policy (if possible from a business perspective). 
    4. Split the policy if it includes lookup children. Add other policies that their root objects are the lookup children. 
    5. If all the above fails to resolve the error, raise a case with support. An internal optimization might be possible that reduces the probability of getting this error from Salesforce .  
    The integration user has limited permissions
    • Reason: The permission, granting access to query the storage details using the tooling API is missing.
    • Solution: Add one of the following permissions:
      • API enabled
      • View setup and configuration and multi-factor authentication
      • Manage Multi-Factor Authentication in API
    FIELD_CUSTOM_VALIDATION_EXCEPTION: You are not authorized to delete this email, sobject_id: None
    • Reason: 

      When unarchiving, Salesforce can encounter data validations such as: validation rules, restricted picklist, duplicate rules etc. In addition to this error message you will be able to see additional text with: Validation rule message,  sf_delete_error_message_object: status_code.

    • Solution: Deactivate the validation rules.
    FIELD_CUSTOM_VALIDATION_EXCEPTION: Bad value for restricted picklist field
    • Reason: 

      When unarchiving, Salesforce can encounter data validations such as: validation rules, restricted picklist, duplicate rules etc. In addition to this error message you will be able to see additional text with: Validation rule message,  sf_delete_error_message_object: status_code: FIELD_CUSTOM_VALIDATION_EXCEPTION, error_message: bad value for restricted picklist field: Closed Lost - Account Merged; Originating Class: UpdateOpportunityBeforeMergeAccount, sobject_id: 001C000001CVN1sIAH

    • Solution 1:
