Handling Apex Exceptions in Managed Packages

When you create a managed package for AppExchange, you can specify a user to receive an email notification when an exception occurs that Apex doesn’t catch.

Required Editions

Available in: Salesforce Classic (not available in all orgs)
Available in: Performance, Unlimited, Developer, and Enterprise Editions
User Permissions Needed
To create packages: Create AppExchange Packages
To upload packages: Upload AppExchange Packages
To create Apex: Author Apex

Uncaught exceptions can be thrown from:

  • A Visualforce action or getter method
  • A Web service method
  • A trigger

The email that is sent has this format.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Developer script exception from CLASSNAME Apex script unhandled trigger exception by user/organization: USER_ID/ORG_ID EXCEPTION_STRING STACK_TRACE --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For example:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Apex Application? <info@salesforce.com> To: joeuser@salesforce.com <joeuser@salesforce.com> Subject: Developer script exception from Gack WS?
