Generates an artifact jar of checked out objects for deployment. You should checkout or export code from SCM prior to running this operation. Checkout or Export can be easily done if you configure project with Source details.
...
As of plugin version 4.6.20, this operation also supports partial build. Partial build creates a build artifact containing file(s) and folder(s) selected on the Project Files tab of a project. When using partial build, the plugin will generate a zip file named {{FD_PROJECT_NAME}}.zip . Note that the structure of this file will match the folder structure from SCM, even if the TARGET attribute is set to a different path. This is so the user can easily change the target and redeploy to MDS to update the file path inside of MDS without having to rebuild the entire project.

- If you want only customer objects
- Use
/MDS/namespace/customerfor sparse checkout folders and empty checkout folder. - Set
/MDS/namespaceasMDS Base Object Path. - So we have only checked out objects necessary for our project, so only customer folder related objects will be included in artifact jar file, but it will still have proper structure, i.e.
customer/customer.xsd.
