What does “version” do in package.xml in Salesforce?

If you have worked with package.xml in Salesforce to retrieve or deploy components, you have seen the “<version></version>” tag. Do you know what exactly it does?

Version determines which version of Metadata API Salesforce will use to retrieve or deployment your components. And that will mean that only those properties will be retrieved or deployed that was available in that version.

Here is a package.xml file that I used to retrieve the same component (one custom object and one custom profile) with different versions. The Org that I used is currently on Winter ’22 Release of Salesforce (i.e. version 53.0)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<Package xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata">
    <types>
        <members>Animal__c</members>
        <name>CustomObject</name>
    </types>
    <types>
        <members>AA System Administrator</members>
        <name>Profile</name>
    </types>
    <version>XX.0</version>
</Package>
