Salesforce Metadata Exporter is a Chrome Extension that lets Salesforce developers export metadata directly from a logged-in org as a downloadable ZIP file. Select metadata types, generate package.xml, upload or paste existing package.xml files, and export without Salesforce CLI, ANT, or complex setup. Built for developers, admins, and architects who need fast, secure, metadata-only exports.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Kartik, a Salesforce Developer and consultant, and I'm excited to share **Salesforce Metadata Exporter**.
As a Salesforce developer, I frequently needed to export metadata from client orgs for audits, troubleshooting, deployments, and reviews. Existing solutions often required Salesforce CLI, ANT Migration Tool, OAuth setup, or additional configuration that wasn't always practical, especially when working across multiple orgs.
I built Salesforce Metadata Exporter to make this process simpler.
With a few clicks, you can:
✅ Browse and select metadata visually
✅ Generate and preview package.xml
✅ Upload or paste existing package.xml files
✅ Export metadata directly as a ZIP file
✅ Use your existing Salesforce session without storing credentials
The extension runs entirely in the browser, communicates directly with Salesforce APIs, and does not export data records or use external servers.
This is my first Chrome Extension focused on Salesforce metadata workflows, and I'd love feedback from developers, admins, architects, and anyone working in the Salesforce ecosystem.
What metadata workflow challenges do you face today? I'd love to hear your thoughts and feature suggestions. 🚀
Thanks for checking it out!
