Hi All,
i notice there is no more ShowMyCode for app.json in BC 19.
how do we block download source?



i used this, but still able to be downloaded

"resourceExposurePolicy": {
    "allowDebugging": true,
    "allowDownloadingSource": false,
    "includeSourceInSymbolFile": false
  },

Have you publish in the dev scope? Then all this is ignored.

i publish in my sandbox
version 18 and before all are disabled to download.

How did you publish? I guess that you published with VScode?
If that is the case that is the problem, when using VSCode to publish, your are publishing in the dev scope. which allow users to download your source code no matter what your app.json.

hi @julkifli33
There are mulitple way, the manuel process is building your app file, go in BC and search for Extension Management, and press the upload action.
Personally i like: to do it with powershell/ a pipeline.
