Bulk Dataverse data operations with PPDS — schema-driven export/import (CMT-compatible), direct environment-to-environment copy, CSV load, bulk update/delete, truncate, user mapping, and dependency analysis. Use when the user wants to move records between environments, seed reference data, export data to a ZIP, load a CSV into a table, bulk-delete records, or migrate data with lookup and owner remapping. Read ppds-core first for auth and safety rules.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# PPDS Data — bulk movement with a schema, not a script Exact flags for every command (export/import/copy/analyze/schema/users/load/ update/delete/truncate): [references/cli-data.md](references/cli-data.md). **Surface routing**: bulk data movement is **CLI-only** (long-running, progress-reporting operations). MCP offers read-side analysis only: `ppds_data_analyze` (record counts, samples), `ppds_data_schema` (entity schema). For ad-hoc row DML prefer SQL via ppds-query. ## The migration loop ```bash # 1. Generate a migration schema (which entities + columns travel) ppds data schema --entities account,contact --output ./schema.xml # 2. Understand dependency order / lookups before moving anything ppds data analyze --schema ./schema.xml # 3. Export from source ppds data export --schema ./schema.xml --output ./data.zip # 4. Map users source → target (service accounts, departed users) ppds data users --source-env <source-url> --target-env <target-url> --output ./usermap.xml # 5. Import to target — STOP: confirm target env with the user first ppds data import --data ./data.zip --user-mapping ./usermap.xml --mode Upsert ``` …

How to install
mdr add joshsmithxrm/ppds-skills/ppds-data@sha256:56fd3cf2fd581ddcThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261031.4d56055, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
