Package2 (Beta)

Represents a second-generation package in a Dev Hub org. Available in API version 41.0 and later.

This release contains a beta version of Second-Generation Packaging, which means it’s a high-quality feature with known limitations. Second-Generation Packaging isn’t generally available unless or until Salesforce announces its general availability in documentation or in press releases or public statements. We can’t guarantee general availability within any particular time frame or at all. Make your purchase decisions only based on generally available products and features. You can provide feedback and suggestions for Second-Generation Packaging in the Salesforce DX Packaging 2 Beta group in the Trailblazer Community.

Second-generation packaging lets you create developer-controlled packages or managed packages. We support developer-controlled packages through an open pilot program. These packages are designed for enterprise customer use cases, but ISVs can also use them during package development. Pilot programs are subject to change. You can install developer-controlled packages in scratch or sandbox orgs but not in a production org. Check out the Trailblazer Community for details on developer-controlled packages.
