Note: This release is in preview. Features described here don’t become generally available until the latest general availability date that Salesforce announces for this release. Before then, and where features are noted as beta, pilot, or developer preview, we can’t guarantee general availability within any particular time frame or at all. Make your purchase decisions only on the basis of generally available products and features.

Install Notifications for Unauthorized Managed Packages

When you distribute a managed package that ISV Partner Program hasn’t authorized, we notify customers during the installation process. The notification is removed after the package is approved.

The notification appears when customers configure the package installation settings (1). Before customers install the package, they must confirm that they understand that the package isn’t authorized for distribution (2).

The notification displays when a managed package:

• Has never been through security review or is under review
• Didn’t pass the security review
• Isn’t authorized by ISV Partner Program for another reason

If the ISV Partner Program approves the package, it’s authorized for distribution, and the notification is removed. When you publish a new version of the package, it’s automatically authorized for distribution.
