I need to retrieve the new custom tab I've created in Salesforce. How should I format a tab name in the sfdx command, based on the tab label, I need to retrieve a specific tab that I've created in salesforce using the command in the terminal, I'm trying the following and it says No results found,

sfdx force:source:retrieve -m CustomTab:Commerce_Buffer__c.tab-meta.xml

Tab Label is

Commerce Buffres

I need to retrieve this so I can commit to the repo, Thanks!

It's just the API name of the tab. You can check Setup to see what its supposed to be, but the default is just the object API name.

sfdx force:source:retrieve -m CustomTab:Commerce_Buffer__c

Tabs not belonging to objects will not have this suffix:

sfdx force:source:retrieve -m CustomTab:Commerce_Buffer

  • It's so strange that it still doesn't find it, I'm still getting no result found. In the setup->tabs, I can see my tab called Commerce Buffers with the (s) and when I click on it, I can see the label is the same and the object is my Commerce Buffer object. I think I'm doing everything correct.

    @Bahman.A Finally got home, I had a chance to test it. It really is supposed to be with the suffix if it's an object tab, otherwise not.

  • I'm hoping that you've had a great day so far. I just saw your updated answer. using the singular with __c suffix worked! Thanks a lot for your help.
