wintamute Issue deploying profiles of license type "Salesforce Platform"
Hi,
When creating new custom profiles in a sandbox via the browser, I can clone either license types "salesforce" or "salesforce platform" (when platform licenses are enabled that is).
However, when trying to deploy theses profiles to the production org with the IDE (or ant tool), they will be created as type "salesforce" and are not available for platform users. When looking at the profile in the IDE, there is no way to distinguish both types.
So instead of deploying them, I have to re-create them manually in the production org which is time consuming and error prone.
Is this expected behavior or a bug?
Thanks,
Andreas

Hi,
You can try this workaround. It worked for me. First create the profile with the same name as the profile you are going to deploy but with the proper license. Then override it on deployment. It should keep the license settings and have the config you were deploying.
