A few more things to check:

• Make sure you've provided detailed steps to reproduce your issue.
  • A repository that clearly demonstrates the bug is ideal.

Thank you!

@camerongoodman Thanks for providing a repo - super helpful 🏆

Looking at the metadata coverage report, SocialProfileSettings isn't supported for the metadata api, which is why you can't deploy it

@mdonnalley we have used this Org Setting for more than 2 years now and it just stopped working. The metadata coverage report you linked has nothing there for v60 but it is there for v59 and earlier so please check it again.

API Version 60

API Version 59

@camerongoodman Sorry I missed that.

This is likely not a CLI issue, unless you can identify an older version of sf that's able to deploy those settings successfully. It's almost certainly an issue in the metadata api.

I'm going to leave this open and mark as owned by another team. Your best bet is to submit a support case since those are typically higher priority for the metadata team than github issues.
