Package and Distribute a Lightning Bolt Solution

After you create a Lightning Bolt Solution, package the solution to distribute it to other users or orgs. You can upload the package to AppExchange to share or sell your solution.
Available in: Salesforce Classic and Lightning Experience
Available in: Enterprise, Performance, Unlimited, and Developer Editions

User Permissions Needed
To create, customize, or publish a community: Create and Set Up Communities AND View Setup and Configuration
To create and upload packages: Create AppExchange Packages AND Upload AppExchange Packages

A package is a container for something as small as an individual component or as large as a set of related apps. Packages come in two forms—unmanaged and managed. We recommend using only managed packages to avoid naming conflicts with other packages in your customer’s org or your own. To create a managed package, use a Developer Edition org.

  1. From Setup, enter Packages in the Quick Find box, and then click Packages.
  2. To package a Lightning Bolt Solution, select Lightning Bolt Solution as the component type, and select your solution. To package a standalone Lightning Community template or page instead of a full Lightning Bolt Solution, select Lightning Community Template or Lightning Page as the component type to add.
    All supported dependencies are included.
