Hi Manish,
Can we authorise dev org to vscode without enabling dev hub?

1. The service and account specified in key.json do not match the version of the toolbelt.
2. unable to get local certificate
What is causing the issue? any idea? any suggestions?

Hello manish,
I have a question.
Let's say I have a production org, which contains applications already.
Now I want to retrieve whole metadata of my production org.
And want to move all metadata to scratch org. So that my scratch org will have all the functional components that I have with my production org.
How do I do this?

[@681mahesh]

One more question.
My org production org has features like health Cloud, marketing Cloud, sales Cloud,
How do I get these features in a scratch org?

[@SFDCFacts]

Hi Mahesh,
You can setup features in scratch org definition file. This JSON file has a features array property where you can list down all the features.
For the other question, its never a best practice to get whole metadata of you production org and deploy inside scratch org as scratch orgs has their own limitation (size of metadata and data), and they have their own purpose (support you application development).
Besides its never easy to get all metadata at once from any Salesforce org and you may face a lot of error. If you still want to do it, having a package.xml file with most of the properties marked as * will be the best bet.
What i would recommend is, to group your metadata into smaller chunks (based on different applications and process in your org) and only get one chunk at a time in one scratch org.
You definitely want to read about UNLOCKED PACKAGES , which goes more in detail on this topic.
