Introduction
The vast majority of Data Cloud metadata can be deployed directly through Gearset, as the user can select the specific components and dependencies they wish to deploy or commit to a target branch. These do not need to be added to a Data Kit to be deployable.
In the case of Calculated Insights, Data Lake Objects and Search Indexes these three components do have to be added to a Data Kit pre-deployment. The user can select the Data Kit and components in the Gearset comparison and deploy them to the target org or branch.
Create your Data Kit
Create a DevOps Data Kit in the source org, and add the selected data stream into it.
Deploy the Data Kit
Deploy the created data kit and all relevant components to target org by starting a comparison in Gearset including DataPackageKitDefinitions and other relevant types (Data Source Object, Data kit object template, data source, data stream definition, data stream template etc.)
Activate the Data Kit
Go to target org, and deploy the new DevOps Data kit.
