App Editions in Connect on Forge

Hi everyone,

We’re currently working on adding App Editions to a Connect-on-Forge app.

After going through the Forge documentation related to this feature, I saw that the following needs to be added to the manifest:

licensing:
 editionsEnabled: true

Since the app lifecycle is still Connect, and we’re already checking whether a customer is on Advanced Edition through the REST API call to the license, I have a few questions:

  • Is it required to include this property for a Connect-on-Forge app?
  • If we add it, will we still receive the capabilitySet through the Connect license endpoint and lifecycle as usual?
  • And if we don’t add it, can a Connect-on-Forge app still support App Editions?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Carlos,

You should add editionsEnabled. It won’t affect what you receive through the Connect license endpoint and lifecycle.

If you don’t add it I imagine problems will arise in systems besides those powering connect, e.g. Marketplace.
