Suppose you want to push version 3.4.6 of your package to all orgs. Let’s write some code to identify the orgs eligible for the upgrade. This example demonstrates how to generate the list of subscriber orgs eligible to be upgraded to version 3.4.6 of a package.

This code sample uses the Force.com Web Services Connector (WSC).

Next Step

Create a push request using PackagePushRequest.
