Retrieving Permission Set with RetainFieldHistory User Permission In Org Doesn't Include Permission #3648

Description

@nickytorstensson

Summary

I try to retrieve a permission set from my org.

  • In the org, the permission set has RetainFieldHistory enabled
  • When I retrieve it, the permission set metadata file doesn't include it.
  • CLI command: sf project retrieve start -m PermissionSet:sysadmin

In contrast, the user permission is included, when I retrieve the standard System Administrator profile
sf project retrieve start -m Profile:Admin

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Have an org, where Shield's Field Audit Trail is enabled
  2. Create a custom permission set
  3. Enable the user permission RetainFieldHistory
  4. Retrieve it via the CLI by running sf project retrieve start -m PermissionSet:sysadmin

Tip

use sf doctor --create-issue to automatically fill the required information

Expected result

Expected the permission set to include:

   <userPermissions>
        <enabled>true</enabled>
        <name>RetainFieldHistory</name>
   </userPermissions>

Actual result

It didn't include the user permission, despite being set in the org.
