if I 'validate against account' - does it confirm that any elements I've indicated as dependencies exists in the target account? it doesn't appear to which is counter to what I'd expect. My expectation would be if an SDF project validates against an account then it should successfully deploy against that account. If there are dependencies listed in

manifest.xml

that are not in the target account, SDF will error on deployment, yes?

Yes, it does validate the dependencies against the account you have referenced in your local project. And it should complaint if referenced files are missing in target account.

hmmm. and the account authid listed in

project.json

is always what

suitecloud

will use for the target account for

project:deploy

?

I remember the use case you provided some days ago and also listing the default authid through a command. I have suggested these improvements for future release. For now yes, the default account in project.json will be used for all actions.

ok, thanks, just confirming. It's scary to not know for sure where I'm changing things 🙂
