Dataverse Solution Lifecycle

Create, export, unpack, pack, import, and validate Dataverse solutions. PAC CLI owns the file and transport operations; the Python SDK creates publisher and solution records and validates the result.

When to use

• Packaging customizations into a solution, or creating the first solution and publisher
• Pulling an environment's customizations into the repo (export + unpack)
• Pushing source to another environment (pack + import), dev to test to prod
• Checking that an import actually landed
