Can CSV files be used for CSV-to-org migration in simulation mode?


Answer.

Yes. CSV files can be used for CSV-to-org migration in simulation mode.

In simulation mode, SFDMU still validates metadata, relationships, and source data flow (including CSV sources), but it does not perform real DML changes in the target org.

This allows you to dry-run CSV-to-org jobs to pre-validate configuration and data consistency before executing a real migration.
