    Thanks Amit. You can also use Salesforce package.xml generator vs code extension to choose metadata using point and click like in Force.com IDE plugin.

    Hi, I don't see "Get All Files from org" option. Which extension it comes from?

    I tried retrieving using package.xml. That does not work. It says "Either the file/metadata type doesn't exist in the current org or you're trying to save/retrieve outside of c:\Users\Downloads\C Drive\Dev1\src

    Hi Amit,

    maybe you can help me. When I'm running test classes in VS code, got different coverages in each time, or the classes that the test passed are not showned all...you have any idea about the root cause? Thank you.
