The EmailTemplate metadata type does not support wildcard retrieval[0] - in package.xml or using the CLI. You need to specify each individual EmailTemplate you want to retrieve. E.g. sfdx force:source:retrieve -m EmailTemplate won't work, but sfdx force:source:retrieve -m EmailTemplate:folder/MyEmailTemplate should .

I ran into this situation few days ago, so I created a bash script, which will first query all email folders and then creates package.xml and retrieves all EmailTemplates using that package.xml.

This is assuming you are on a unix box and jq is installed.

1) Prepare a file named DownloadAllEmailTemplates.sh with below content:

rm -f temp.txt
rm -f package_temp.xml
echo "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>n" >> package_temp.xml
echo "<Package xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata">" >> package_temp.xml

sfdx force:mdapi:listmetadata --metadatatype=EmailFolder --targetusername=$1 --json | jq '.result[].fullName' > temp.txt
input="temp.txt"
echo " <types>" >> package_temp.xml
while IFS= read -r line
do
 folderName="$line//"/" 
 echo "$folderName"
 rm -f temp_1.txt
 sfdx force:mdapi:listmetadata --metadatatype=EmailTemplate --folder=$folderName --targetusername=$1 --json | jq '.result[].fullName' >> temp_1.txt
 while IFS= read -r line1
 do
 templateName="$line1//"/"
 echo " <members>$templateName</members>" >> package_temp.xml
 done < "temp_1.txt"
 rm -f temp_1.txt
done < "$input"
echo " <name>EmailTemplate</name>" >> package_temp.xml
echo " </types>" >> package_temp.xml
rm -f temp.txt

sfdx force:source:retrieve --targetusername=$1 --manifest=package_temp.xml 

If you have a org alias as production, you can run the below command to retrieve all email templates from that org.

sh DownloadAllEmailTemplates.sh production
