Hi members,
I would like to access an app file in the extension management without using the dependencies.
The scenario is that, In the production environment we have a customized field made by our client.
Now, I would like to access the same customized field in their sandbox environment.
But I dont have their source code or the APP dependencies.
How can I access the same field without using the dependencies or APP file.?
Thanks

If you only need to see the value in the custom fields you can inspect the page "crtl+Alt+F1" search for the column/field and get the value.
Otherwise there no other way to access the customized field.
You can use RecordRef to access the field, but it's quite limited on what you are trying to do.
You don't need to have access to their source code to have dependency. You just need the app info which you can get from the Extension Management page.
You can try use RecordRef Data Type and FieldRef Data Type.
I used this way. And It work for me.
If you copy their production environment to a new sandbox then you can go to extension management and find the information you need to create a dependency. Then you will be able to access the field.
There is no other way to access fields in an extension without mentioning the required dependencies. Ask the required extension directly from your client, if possible
If you dont have the source code with you, in that case you have to add that app as dependency in your app.json file, there is no other way out.
Thanks
