Dependencies deployment bug ? v2.140.4

[AmineIdTa]

Summary

Since the lastest release update the 13th and 14th june, when using the command
sf project deploy -d force-app/main, something wierd happens with genAiPromptTemplates

For more context, we deployed a screen flow that uses a genAiPrompt (it was like 5 weeks ago, smth like that). But since the release, the same command return this issue

Two possibiilties:

• Either the .promptRepsone does not exist anymore (which is not, I checked and still present as an ouptput var)
• The prompt is not deployed, I mean not deployed before the flow -> which is wierd, cuz' when we deploy some metadata whith dependencies, the dependencies are deployed first then the main cmps.

Well, when I deployed the genAiPrompt before the full package, it worked

I dont know if the cli is responsilbe or it's some salesforce's dark magic surprise (like what we see after each release) ?

@AmineIdTa , 2.140.x is nightly. Do you see it on latest, which is 2.138.x?

@jfeingold35 Having the same exact issue. Just updated the CLI to the latest version 2.140.6, unfortunately no luck.

Validating Deployment of v67.0 metadata to <org> using the v67.0 SOAP API.
[...]
Error (FailedValidationError): Failed to validate the deployment (0AfRR00000egX5N0AU).
Due To: Error in Case_Run_Classification - field integrity exception: unknown (The element has an invalid reference to "Classify_Case.structuredResponse.subtype".)

Attaching minimal example.

I am trying now to deploy to the higher org.
The trick with deploying prompt template before anything else doesn't work. Flow deployment fails even though the rest of the metadata is already on the org.
Redeployment to the source org doesn't fail.

Hello @jfeingold35 sorry for my late reply, yeah it happens also on 2.138 before I updated to 2.140

I did exactly this, but it sucks to do it manualy since I have a CI for production deployement ...

Thanks to both of you for the additional information. I'll be looking into this shortly. If I need anything else or have any updates to provide, I'll let you know. Thank you for your patience.

[jfeingold35]

Okay, I'm seeing the bug now:

Now that I've repro'd the bug, I can proceed accordingly. Again, updates will be provided as they become available.

@AmineIdTa, @so1741249874660 , it looks like this is an issue with server-side processing of the deploy, not with the CLI. As such, we recommend opening a Support Case.
