SuiteScript 2.x SDF Installation Script Type

The SDF installation script type is used to perform tasks during deployment of a SuiteApp from SuiteCloud Development Framework (SDF) to your target account. You can use this script type to perform setup, configuration, and data management tasks that would otherwise have to be completed by account administrators, such as:

Setting up and verifying the target account
Verifying that required permissions and features are enabled before installing
Preventing installation if proper setup has not occurred
Stopping installation if a requirement is missing in the account
Migrating existing data (for instance, data needed for a SuiteApp)
Programmatically creating fields on a custom record based on the account's enabled features

Watch the following help video for information about SuiteCloud Development Framework installation scripts.

The SDF installation script type is similar to the bundle installation script type. However, this script type is designed for use with SuiteApps that are developed and deployed with the SDF, rather than with SuiteBundler.
