After setting up a connection, I clicked on test. It gave me an OK message. After that, its displaying a Populating Contents screen saying Listing metadata objects. Its stuck on this screen. Can you tell me what can be the issue, or where can I check the logs?

You can grab the logs from C:\Users\<username>\.IntelliJIdea<version>\system\log\idea.log. The .IntelliJIdea<version> portion will be slightly different if you're using Community Edition, but it should be obvious what it is. Go ahead and send that to me at sup...@illuminatedcloud.com and I'll take a look. Every API interaction has a 5 minute timeout, so it should eventually time out. I'm curious as to whether this is a client issue or just an unresponsive server. It should just be calling MetadataApi.listMetadata() at that point...

I will check the logs and send you.

One more question. The username which I am using, does it require some specific permission to check out code from SFDC instance to my local system? Maybe I don't have the reqd permission enabled, though I have the System Admin profile.

Sys Admin is fine. Ultimately you need API Enabled and Author Apex, and those two end up dragging a bunch of other stuff in with it. I think Modify All Data is also needed but I also think these perms end up activating each other anyway. The Sys Admin profile should have all of them on by default.

This is looking like a timeout, though. If you didn't have adequate perms I would expect an instantaneous response saying as much.

Shoot your logs over when you have them and I'll take a look.

Interesting. That's a new one to me. Let me see if there's anything I can do to adjust the client on my side to handle a larger API response. I should have more info soon, and if I can do something about it, I'll post a test build for you to try to confirm the fix as well.

I am reading this post, and it says that the Salesforce metadata API restricts calls to 10000 items.

Looks like it's a simple property that needs to be set. You can actually do it yourself without requiring an updated build. Use Help>Edit Custom Properties to create a custom properties file for IntelliJ IDEA. Then add the following property:

-Dorg.apache.cxf.stax.maxChildElements=250000

Restart IntelliJ IDEA and see if that doesn't resolve the issue for you. Please let me know either way.

Thanks!

You know what? I may have asked you to put it in the wrong place. Do you mind adding that property under Help>Edit Custom VM Options? And go ahead and remove it from the other location. Restart the IDE and I bet that does it. Please let me know either way.
