Dv Metadata

Category: Engineering  ·  Sub-category: engineering-misc  ·  Last updated:
lang:python
Dataverse schema authoring via the Python SDK and Web API — tables, columns, relationships, forms, and views. Use when the user wants to define or evolve the data model — add a column, create a table, set up a lookup, customize a form, or build a view.

From the source SKILL.md

Before the first metadata change in a session: 1. Confirm the target environment with the user — see the Multi-Environment Rule in dv-overview. 2. Confirm the solution — ask "What solution should these components go into?" If SOLUTION_NAME is in .env, confirm it. If no solution exists yet, you MUST ask the user for the solution name and publisher prefix before creating anything. The publisher prefix is permanent — it cannot be changed after components are created with it.

# Publisher discovery + solution creation — use SDK (never raw Web API).
# See dv-solution for the full publisher discovery flow.
pages = client.records.get("publisher",
    filter="customizationprefix ne 'none' and uniquename ne 'MicrosoftCorporation'",
    select=["publisherid", "uniquename", "friendlyname", "customizationprefix"], top=10)
publishers = [p for page in pages for p in page]
