@dimitrimonge It might be an issue caused by an old version of sfdx. Try to update to the latest version: sfdx-cli/7.84.2-a2868a68d5 win32-x64 node-v12.18.3 and then verify if the bug persists.

Files are here inside of the following files

--Case.sharingRules-meta.xml

pacakge file is

<Package xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata">
    <types>
        <members>Account.CSSCZ_AccountSharingRule</members>
        <members>Case.CSSCZ_CaseSharingRule</members>

@dimitrimonge @DougMidgley could either of you provide a link to a github repo that contains the metadata that replicates this issue?

Thanks

@AllanOricil @DougMidgley @mdonnalley sorry for the delay, I was very busy by a go live last days.
I found out a work around to make it work.

You can add the following tag to your manifest :

    <types>
        <members>*</members>
        <name>SharingRules</name>
    </types>

You can have the same issue with matching rule that you can solve with same kind of tag :

    <types>
        <members>*</members>
        <name>MatchingRules</name>
    </types>

Hope will help

Best regards

So when using the SharingRules tag it works, but when using SharingCriteriaRule it does not, even though it is supported in the coverage report ( https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/metadata-coverage/51). The metadata docs (https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_meta.meta/api_meta/meta_sharingrules.htm) are contradictory - they provide an example using the Subtype

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Package xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata">
    <types>
        <members>ObjA__c.*</members>
        <name>SharingCriteriaRule</name>
    </types>
    <types>
        <members>ObjA__c.*</members>
        <name>SharingOwnerRule</name>
    </types>
    <version>51.0</version>
</Package>

but also say it cannot be used

You can’t retrieve, delete, or deploy manual sharing rules or sharing rules by their type (owner, criteria-based, territory, or guest user).

@DougMidgley
it seems working to retrieve metadatas but not to deploy them.
It used to work in version 7.81.

Hope Salesforce will solve this issue soon but at least we have a work arround :

[niv-goldenberg]

I'm still getting this for SharingCriteriaRule:
sfdx-cli/7.82.1-0 linux-x64 node-v14.16.0
Ubuntu 20.04

The workaround will not work for me, since we build the package automatically as part of our CI/CD process.

Hope that someone in Salesforce can fix it soon...

I was able to display the sharing setting changes via SFDX, displaying exclusively the object that was required to modify the sharing setting. When displaying the object in the object's meta file, this information travels:

On lines 234 and 258 shown in the image is the configuration of the sharing setting within the object
