Users without the “Manage Territories” permission will be able to retrieve all the Territory2Types in the org. “Manage Territories” permission is required for the deploy() operation, in addition to the “Modify All Data” permission required by the Metadata API.
Fields
| Field Name | Field Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| description | string | A description of the territory type. |
| name | string | Required. The user interface label for the territory type. |
| priority | int | Required. Used for Filter-Based Opportunity Territory Assignment (Pilot in Spring ’15 / Metadata API version 33). Lets you specify a priority for a territory type. For opportunity assignments, the filter examines all territories assigned to the account that the opportunity is assigned to. The account-assigned territory whose territory type priority is highest is then assigned to the opportunity. The priority field value on each territory type must be unique. Further, if there are multiple territories with the same territory type (and therefore the same priority) assigned to the account, no territory is not assigned to the opportunity. |
