A new command, AL: Download symbols from global sources, allows downloading app packages directly from Microsoft's public NuGet feeds, or optionally from custom feeds if this is set up.

Country/region-specific packages are supported, using the al.symbolsCountryRegion setting, giving developers flexibility when working with localized or external apps.

Custom NuGet feeds can be configured through al.customNugetFeeds, with the option to restrict downloads to custom feeds only using al.useOnlyCustomFeeds.

Usage

Open Visual Studio Code Command Palette and invoke AL: Download Symbols from Global Sources.
The AL VSIX extension then downloads symbols from Microsoft feeds and/or your custom feeds based on settings.

Feature settings

You can control how symbol feeds are handled via these new settings.json entries in Visual Studio Code.

al.nuget - Feeds array of custom NuGet feed URLs to search for symbol packages. These feeds are checked after the built-in Microsoft feeds. Each URL should point to a public NuGet v3 feed that doesn't require authentication.
al.useOnlyCustomFeeds - Boolean. When true, only the feeds specified in al.nugetFeeds are used. Built-in Microsoft feeds are ignored.
al.symbolsCountryRegion - Country/region code for localized symbol packages. Use ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes (for example, us, de, dk) or w1 for worldwide. If not specified, you will be prompted during download.
