How to keep custom extensions in Cloud tenants while upgrading

I hope some of you must have noticed custom apps are uninstalled while upgrading Online tenants.

How can we keep them while upgrading?

As per Microsoft, If we upload extensions via extension management page then those apps won't be uninstalled while upgrading.

If we install extensions via Visual studio code then those apps will be uninstalled while upgrading.

So always keep it in mind to install/upload apps via extension management page and not via visual studio code.

How to install AL Language Extension using VSIX file

Some times we need to use different AL language extension file that is not available in AL market place of visual studio code. In that case, we can install AL Language extension using VSIX file that is available through docker installation.

1.     There will be a .vsix path when we install any build using docker like below.

If you have not stores then you can get it using Dockers Logs <docker Name>

2.     Save this file by pasting vsix file url in browser.

3.     Go to Visual Studio Extensions page.

Click on 3 dots as shown in image and click Install from VSIX

Now we have the AL Language Extension of version that we needed.
