CRITICAL: Orchestration Order
When multiple OmniStudio skills are involved, follow this dependency chain:
sf-industry-commoncore-omnistudio-analyze → sf-industry-commoncore-datamapper → sf-industry-commoncore-integration-procedure → sf-industry-commoncore-omniscript → sf-industry-commoncore-flexcard
This skill runs first to establish namespace context and dependency maps that downstream skills consume.
Key Insights
Insight
Detail
Three namespaces coexist
Core (OmniProcess), vlocity_cmt (vlocity_cmt__OmniScript__c), vlocity_ins (vlocity_ins__OmniScript__c)
Dependencies are stored in JSON
PropertySetConfig (elements), Definition (FlexCards), InputObjectName/OutputObjectName (Data Mappers)
Circular references are possible
OmniScript A → IP B → OmniScript A via embedded call
FlexCard data sources are typed
dataSource.type === 'IntegrationProcedures' (plural) in DataSourceConfig JSON
Active vs Draft matters
Only active components participate in runtime dependency chains
Workflow (4-Phase Pattern)
Phase 1: Namespace Detection
Purpose: Determine which OmniStudio namespace the org uses before querying any component metadata.
Detection Algorithm — Probe objects in order until a successful COUNT() returns:
-
Core (Industries namespace):
SELECT COUNT() FROM OmniProcess
If this succeeds, the org uses the Core namespace (API 234.0+ / Spring '22+).
-
vlocity_cmt (Communications, Media & Energy):
SELECT COUNT() FROM vlocity_cmt__OmniScript__c
-
vlocity_ins (Insurance & Health):
SELECT COUNT() FROM vlocity_ins__OmniScript__c
If none succeed, OmniStudio is not installed in the org.
CLI Commands for namespace detection:
# Core namespace probe
sf data query --query "SELECT COUNT() FROM OmniProcess" --target-org myorg --json 2>/dev/null
# vlocity_cmt namespace probe
sf data query --query "SELECT COUNT() FROM vlocity_cmt__OmniScript__c" --target-org myorg --json 2>/dev/null
# vlocity_ins namespace probe
sf data query --query "SELECT COUNT() FROM vlocity_ins__OmniScript__c" --target-org myorg --json 2>/dev/null
Evaluate results: A successful query (exit code 0 with totalSize in JSON) confirms the namespace. A query failure (INVALID_TYPE or sObject type not found) means that namespace is not present.
See: references/namespace-guide.md for complete object/field mapping across all three namespaces.
Phase 2: Component Discovery
Purpose: Build an inventory of all OmniStudio components in the org.
Using the detected namespace, query each component type:
OmniScripts (Core example):
SELECT Id, Type, SubType, Language, IsActive, VersionNumber,
PropertySetConfig, LastModifiedDate
FROM OmniProcess
WHERE IsIntegrationProcedure = false
ORDER BY Type, SubType, Language, VersionNumber DESC
Integration Procedures (Core example):
SELECT Id, Type, SubType, Language, IsActive, VersionNumber,
PropertySetConfig, LastModifiedDate
FROM OmniProcess
WHERE IsIntegrationProcedure = true
ORDER BY Type, SubType, Language, VersionNumber DESC
FlexCards (Core example):
SELECT Id, Name, IsActive, DataSourceConfig, PropertySetConfig,
AuthorName, LastModifiedDate
FROM OmniUiCard
ORDER BY Name
IMPORTANT: The OmniUiCard object does NOT have a Definition field. Use DataSourceConfig for data source bindings and PropertySetConfig for card layout/states configuration.
Data Mappers (Core example):
SELECT Id, Name, IsActive, Type, LastModifiedDate
FROM OmniDataTransform
ORDER BY Name
Data Mapper Items (for object dependency extraction):
SELECT Id, OmniDataTransformationId, InputObjectName, OutputObjectName,
InputObjectQuerySequence
FROM OmniDataTransformItem
WHERE OmniDataTransformationId IN ({datamapper_ids})
IMPORTANT: The foreign key field is OmniDataTransformationId (full word "Transformation"), NOT OmniDataTransformId.
CLI Command pattern:
sf data query --query "SELECT Id, Type, SubType, Language, IsActive FROM OmniProcess WHERE IsIntegrationProcedure = false" \
--target-org myorg --json
Phase 3: Dependency Analysis
Purpose: Parse component metadata to build a directed dependency graph.
#### Algorithm: BFS with Circular Detection
1. Initialize empty graph G and visited set V
2. For each root component C:
a. Enqueue C into work queue Q
b. While Q is not empty:
i. Dequeue component X from Q
ii. If X is in V, record circular reference and skip
iii. Add X to V
iv. Parse X's metadata for dependency references
v. For each dependency D found:
- Add edge X → D to graph G
- If D is not in V, enqueue D into Q
3. Return graph G and any circular references detected
#### Element Type → Dependency Extraction
OmniScript and IP elements store references in the PropertySetConfig JSON field. Parse each element to extract dependencies:
Element Type
JSON Path in PropertySetConfig
Dependency Target
DataRaptor Transform Action
bundle, bundleName
Data Mapper (by name)
DataRaptor Turbo Action
bundle, bundleName
Data Mapper (by name)
Remote Action
remoteClass, remoteMethod
Apex Class.Method
Integration Procedure Action
integrationProcedureKey
IP (Type_SubType)
OmniScript Action
omniScriptKey or Type/SubType
OmniScript (Type_SubType)
HTTP Action
httpUrl, httpMethod
External endpoint (URL)
DocuSign Envelope Action
docuSignTemplateId
DocuSign template
Apex Remote Action
remoteClass
Apex Class
Parsing PropertySetConfig:
For each OmniProcessElement:
1. Read PropertySetConfig (JSON string)
2. Parse JSON
3. Check element.Type against extraction table
4. Extract referenced component name/key
5. Resolve reference to an OmniProcess/OmniDataTransform record
6. Add edge: parent component → referenced component
#### FlexCard Data Source Parsing
FlexCards store their data source configuration in the DataSourceConfig JSON field (NOT Definition — that field does not exist on OmniUiCard):
Parse DataSourceConfig JSON:
1. Access dataSource object (singular, not array)
2. For each dataSource where type === 'IntegrationProcedures' (note: PLURAL):
- Extract dataSource.value.ipMethod (IP Type_SubType)
- Add edge: FlexCard → Integration Procedure
3. For each dataSource where type === 'ApexRemote':
- Extract dataSource.value.className
- Add edge: FlexCard → Apex Class
4. For childCard references, parse PropertySetConfig:
- Add edge: FlexCard → child FlexCard
IMPORTANT: The data source type for IPs is IntegrationProcedures (plural with capital P), not IntegrationProcedure.
#### Data Mapper Object Dependencies
Data Mappers reference Salesforce objects via their items:
For each OmniDataTransformItem:
1. Read InputObjectName → source sObject
2. Read OutputObjectName → target sObject
3. Add edge: Data Mapper → sObject (read from InputObjectName)
4. Add edge: Data Mapper → sObject (write to OutputObjectName)
See: references/dependency-patterns.md for complete dependency extraction rules and examples.
Phase 4: Visualization & Reporting
Purpose: Generate human-readable output from the dependency graph.

Edge Cases
Scenario
Handling
Mixed namespace org (migration in progress)
Probe all three namespaces; report if multiple return results. Components may exist under both old and migrated namespaces.
Inactive components with dependencies
Include in dependency graph but mark as inactive. Warn if active component depends on inactive one.
Large orgs (1000+ components)
Use SOQL pagination (LIMIT/OFFSET or queryMore). Process in batches of 200.
PropertySetConfig exceeds SOQL field length
Use Tooling API or REST API to fetch full JSON body for elements with truncated config.
Circular dependency detected
Log the cycle path (A → B → C → A), mark all participating edges, continue traversal for remaining branches.
Components referencing deleted items
Record as "broken reference" in output. Flag for cleanup.
Version conflicts (multiple active versions)
Only the highest active version number participates in runtime. Warn if lower versions have unique dependencies.
Notes
- Dependencies: Requires
sfCLI with org authentication. Optional: sf-diagram-mermaid for styled visualization.
- Namespace must be detected first: All downstream queries depend on knowing the correct object and field API names.
- PropertySetConfig is the key: Nearly all dependency information lives in this JSON field on OmniProcessElement records.
- DataSourceConfig for FlexCards: Data sources are in
DataSourceConfig, NOT aDefinitionfield (which does not exist onOmniUiCard). Card layout/states are inPropertySetConfig.
- Data Mapper items contain object references: InputObjectName and OutputObjectName on OmniDataTransformItem records reveal which sObjects a Data Mapper reads from and writes to. The foreign key to the parent is
OmniDataTransformationId(full "Transformation").
- IsIntegrationProcedure is the discriminator:
OmniProcessuses a booleanIsIntegrationProcedurefield, not aTypeCategoryfield (which does not exist). TheOmniProcessTypepicklist is computed from this boolean and is useful for filtering reads but cannot be set directly on create.
- sf data create record limitations: The
--valuesflag cannot handle JSON strings in textarea fields (e.g., PropertySetConfig). Usesf api request rest --method POST --body @file.jsoninstead for records with JSON configuration.
