Limited Access License for Package Developers

The Salesforce Limited Access - Free is designed for users whose role is to build customizations or applications. This license provides access to the Dev Hub, development tools, and environments. In the production org, this license restricts access to standard and custom objects. Partner Business Orgs (PBO) include 100 Salesforce Limited Access - Free user licenses.

If the Salesforce Limited Access - Free license isn’t already enabled in your PBO, log a case with Salesforce Partner Support to request up to 100 licenses. A Salesforce admin can upgrade a Salesforce Limited Access - Free license to a standard Salesforce license at any time.

Certain developer features aren’t available with the Salesforce Limited Access - Free license.

  • To provide the ability to create and manage org shapes, assign the Salesforce user license. The Salesforce Limited Access - Free license isn’t supported at this time.
  • Users with the Salesforce Limited Access - Free license and View All Records permissions can create scratch orgs using an existing org shape.
  • Users with the Salesforce Limited Access - Free license and View All Records permissions can view scratch org snapshots created by users other than themselves.
  • The Salesforce Limited Access - Free license doesn’t provide access to some Salesforce CLI commands, such as sf limits api display.
  • Contact your Salesforce admin for API limits information.

If your developers need broader access, consider assigning the Salesforce license. For details, see Standard User Licenses in Salesforce Help.
