Business value

Snapshots require symbols to be able to set snappoints in apps where one does not have code. So far symbols had to be downloaded from sandboxes with a regular launch configuration. Because snapshots are designed to be used in production environments, it introduces unnecessary churn and time to create matching sandboxes just to download symbols.

Feature details

Define environmentType and environmentName properties in an initialize snapshot launch.json configuration to download symbols over the snapshot endpoint. When initiating download symbols command, you can now also select among initialize snapshot launch.json configurations.
