🆘 Support

Hitting an error below when running the auto-generated migration script from “@datocms/cli”: “4.0.28”.

Suspected issue: it tries to remove a block that is used by another model.

The sequence written in the migration script = del block > del model, but it should be del model > block.

Error: DELETE https://site-api.datocms.com/item-types/CyAO43hzTMuSjjhJLx61aQ?skip_menu_items_deletion=true: 422 N/A

Hello @yiying.lim welcome to the community and thank you for the feedback!

This seems indeed to be an edge case bug on our CLI.

We’re taking a look at it, and I’ll get back to you as soon as we have any updates on this.

Thank you once again for letting us know!

Hey once again @yiying.lim !

We just shipped a fix for this on CLI 4.0.29

Can you update it and generate a new migration and let us know if it works as expected now?

Thank you very much once again for the feedback!
