CMAP Validation Suite v8.0.0
ZERO WARNINGS POLICY (MANDATORY)
Validators produce ONLY pass or fail - NO WARNINGS ALLOWED.
Every check results in one of two states:
- •PASS: Meets Microsoft requirements OR is system-expected pattern
- •FAIL: Does not meet requirements, must fix before import
System-Expected Patterns (automatically PASS):
- •System relationships:
owner_,team_,user_,business_unit_,organization_ - •Microsoft auto-generates these without publisher prefixes
CLI Usage (Primary)
The unified cmap-validate CLI is the primary validation tool:
bash
# Validate a solution ZIP cmap-validate solution.zip # JSON output for CI/CD cmap-validate solution.zip --format json -o report.json # Markdown report cmap-validate solution.zip --format markdown -o report.md # SARIF for GitHub/Azure DevOps cmap-validate solution.zip --format sarif -o results.sarif # Run specific categories only cmap-validate solution.zip -c package -c dataverse # Run with policy evaluation (per-environment thresholds) cmap-validate solution.zip --policy policy.json --environment prod # Verbose output cmap-validate solution.zip --verbose # Auto-fix issues where possible cmap-validate solution.zip --fix
Orchestrator Script (Alternative)
For skill-based automation, use the orchestrator wrapper:
bash
# Full validation delegating to cmap-validate CLI python scripts/validate_cmap_suite.py solution.zip # With extended standalone checks (YAML, PowerFx, Web Resources, etc.) python scripts/validate_cmap_suite.py /path/to/deployment/ --include-extended # JSON report output python scripts/validate_cmap_suite.py solution.zip --report report.json

Acceptable Patterns
These are explicitly PASS, not warnings:
- •Publisher prefixes:
eap_,mpa_,ca_,cmap_ - •Microsoft system entities:
msdyn_,mspp_ - •System-generated relationships:
owner_,team_,user_, etc. - •System-generated fields (no prefix required)
Version History
