FeatureParameterInteger

Represents an integer feature parameter in the Feature Management App (FMA). Feature parameters let you drive app behavior and track activation metrics in subscriber orgs that install your package. This type extends the Metadata metadata type and inherits its fullName field.

Where possible, we changed noninclusive terms to align with our company value of Equality. We maintained certain terms to avoid any effect on customer implementations.

Important

Version

FeatureParameterInteger components are available in API version 41.0 and later.
