How Do Feature Parameters Work?

When a subscriber installs your package, Salesforce creates two junction object records for each feature parameter: one in your LMO, and a hidden one in your subscriber’s org. The linked records keep the values of each feature parameter in sync between your LMO and your subscriber’s org. This linking is similar to the mechanism that keeps license records in sync between your LMO and your subscriber’s org.
