Package2 (Beta)

Represents a second-generation package in a Dev Hub org. Values for all fields are visible to the subscriber. Available in API version 41.0 and later.

As a beta feature, Second-Generation Packaging is a preview and isn’t part of the “Services” under your master subscription agreement with Salesforce. Use this feature at your sole discretion, and make your purchase decisions only on the basis of generally available products and features. Salesforce doesn’t guarantee general availability of this feature within any particular time frame or at all, and we can discontinue it at any time. This feature is for evaluation purposes only, not for production use. It’s offered as is and isn’t supported, and Salesforce has no liability for any harm or damage arising out of or in connection with it. All restrictions, Salesforce reservation of rights, obligations concerning the Services, and terms for related Non-Salesforce Applications and Content apply equally to your use of this feature. You can provide feedback and suggestions for second-generation packaging in the Packaging 2 Beta group in the Trailblazer Community.

Fields

Field	Details
ContainerOptions	Type picklist Properties Create, Filter, Group, Restricted picklist, Sort Description Container options for the second-generation package. These options determine the upgrade and editability rules. The default value is `Managed`. Valid values include: `Managed` (developer-managed, subscriber-managed) `Unlocked` (developer-controlled, subscriber-editable)
Description	Type string Properties Create, Filter, Nillable, Sort, Update Description Description of the package.
IsDeprecated	Type boolean Properties Defaulted on create, Filter, Group, Sort, Update Description Specifies whether this package has been marked as deprecated (`true`) or not (`false`). The default value is `false`. If you set IsDeprecated to `true` for a package, the package and all of its child package versions are deprecated. If you set IsDeprecated to `false` for a package, the package and all of its child package versions are undeprecated. However, if IsDeprecated is explicitly set to `true` for a package version after its parent package is deprecated, the child remains deprecated even if you undeprecate its parent. If you set IsDeprecated to `false` for a package version whose parent package is deprecated, the package version’s IsDeprecated value remains `true` until its parent is undeprecated. Deprecated package versions that have been installed in subscriber orgs continue to function, but new installations of deprecated package versions are blocked.
Name	Type string Properties Create, Filter, Group, Nillable, Sort, Update Description Name of the package. Unlike a typical developer name, this value is mutable and can contain special characters.
NamespacePrefix	Type string Properties Create, Filter, Group, Nillable, Sort Description Namespace prefix that identifies the components of your package in the subscriber’s org.
SubscriberPackageID	Type reference Properties Filter, Group, Sort, Unique Description ID that identifies this package across all Salesforce instances (starts with `033`). This value is case-sensitive and must be unique.

Usage
