A managed package is a container that includes the components of a Salesforce application,
and it’s a mechanism for installing apps in Salesforce. Unmanaged packages can be used to
distribute open-source projects to developers or as a one-time drop of applications that
require customization after installation. When installing managed or unmanaged packages in
Government Cloud, consider the location of the package subscriber org.
Considerations for Installation
All managed and unmanaged packages in Government Cloud are supported when the package
subscriber is located in Government Cloud.
Managed and unmanaged packages in Government Cloud are unsupported when the package
subscriber org is outside Government Cloud.
We recommend customers engage with a third-party assessment organization (3PAO) or their
internal risk management organization to determine the controls relevant to a native
app.
Limitations for Salesforce Partners
The License Management App (LMA) manages licenses for your AppExchange solutions. Some
limitations to the LMA in Government Cloud apply.
Partner support access isn’t supported for the LMA within Government Cloud.
Partners can’t update the license of a Government Cloud subscriber org from an LMA
outside of Government Cloud.
