Salesforce Einstein Analytics Deployment: Salesforce Einstein Analytics components can be deployed in orgs via three ways:
If the Einstein Analytics components will be deployed to a related org then Change set is the best option.
Else Package-based metadata deployment using VS Code is the freeware to carry out the deployment.
There are deployment tools like AutoRabit, Copado Gearset etc who supports Einstein Analytics component deployment seamlessly but the assumption here is customers don’t have a license of any of those tools.
Before starting, please make sure who is carrying out the deployment has the below permission
- Manage Analytics
- API enabled
- Modify Metadata
- Modify All Data
Below is the package.xml
<types>
<members>Analytics</members>
<name>Settings</name>
<members></members>
<name>WaveApplication</name>
<members></members>
<name>WaveDataflow</name>
