SandboxSettings

Represents Sandbox settings.

In the package manifest, all organization settings metadata types are accessed using the Settings name. See Settings for details.

This type extends Metadata and inherits its fields.

SandboxSettings values are stored in the Sandbox.settings file in the settings folder. The .settings files are different from other named components because there is only one settings file for each settings component.

SandboxSettings are available in API version 56.0 and later.

The wildcard character * (asterisk) in the package.xml manifest file doesn’t apply to metadata types for feature settings. The wildcard applies only when retrieving all settings, not for an individual setting. For details, see Settings. For information about using the manifest file, see Deploying and Retrieving Metadata with the Zip File.
