| Oct 21, 2021 at 8:53 | comment | added | wesaw | Completely agree with @PhilW point. Moreover, changes that break backward compatibility should be communicated in advance (at least that what serious products are doing), so that devs can get ready by analyzing code base, preparing changes etc. It's by far not OK that we are getting to know about this error only after encounter it in practice and figuring out solution in stack overflow post( | |

| Sep 10, 2021 at 17:13 | comment | added | Alba Rivas | Thank you Phil for your feedback. The suggested workaround is: 1- Retrieve the same page using the newer API version which would generate the required identifiers for them 2 - Use this metadata to deploy using the newer API version | |
| Sep 10, 2021 at 15:11 | comment | added | Phil W | Hey Alba, that's a PM that has no care about the number of developers who will be impacted. This sort of breaking change, though minor, will cost each developer time, wasting potentially years of "man time" across the entire developer base. | |
| Sep 10, 2021 at 15:04 | comment | added | Alba Rivas | I've asked the PM for this area and he's confirmed there're no plans to fix this behaviour. I'm sorry! | |
| Sep 9, 2021 at 8:37 | comment | added | Phil W | This is a breaking change by SF in that case, with no backwards compatibility, which is a very bad thing for them to do. Will this be corrected before Winter 22 GA? In addition, is this likely to impact managed packages that contain flexipages with no identifiers? | |
