Deprecated Metadata

Below you will find a list of metadata that was deprecated as part of this release. Kaptio regularly deprecates and removes metadata from our Managed Package as part of overall maintenance of our solution.

Please note that data and metadata is never deleted in a client”s org without specific action by the customer. When a client upgrades to the new release, any deleted components are still available in the client”s org. The components are displayed in the Unused Components section of the Package Details page. This section ensures that subscribers have the opportunity to export data and modify custom integrations involving those components before explicitly deleting them. For example, before deleting custom objects or fields, customers can preserve a record of their data from Setup by entering Data Export in the Quick Find box and then selecting Data Export.

Please review and adjust any customisations (apex code, workflows, process builder etc.) related to this metadata.

As part of the release readiness process where we are deprecating fields or functionality, we have to ensure we provide relevant information in the release notes and have a dedicated knowledge base article that explains:

  1. Why we are deprecating the feature

  2. How it potentially affects the customer

  3. What alternatives there are (if any)

It is the duty of the entire release readiness team to ensure that this practice is in place for all future releases.
