AUTH0_INCLUDED_ONLY Does Not Appear to be Working for the Deploy CLI

Problem statement

The “AUTH0_INCLUDED_ONLY” configuration property is intended to be used in the config.json file of the Deploy CLI to export only certain resource types from a tenant. The following example should only export Actions, Rules, and Hooks:

"AUTH0_INCLUDED_ONLY": ["actions", "rules", "hooks"],

What could cause this property to be ignored and a full export to be executed instead?

Cause

The “AUTH0_INCLUDED_ONLY” configuration property may not be functioning if the version of the Deploy CLI is older than v7.16.0. This property was introduced in the version 7.16.0 release.

Solution

To use the “AUTH0_INCLUDED_ONLY” configuration property, upgrade the version of the Deploy CLI to v7.16.0 or later.
