Announcement: upcoming update to Node.js v24
Starting February 2026, the Salesforce CLI installer for Windows, macOS, and Linux tarballs will start bundling Node.js v24 (Current LTS) instead of Node.js v22 (Maintenance LTS).
Node.js v24 support for older platforms has changed, specifically:
- Windows: Dropped support for 32-bit Windows (x86).
- Linux: Dropped support for 32-bit Linux on armv7.
- macOS: The installer requires macOS >= 13.5.
Salesforce Recommendations
To avoid missing Salesforce CLI updates, make sure you migrate to a supported architecture/version for your operating system before February 2026.
If you must use Salesforce CLI on the architecture/versions listed above, then you can install Node.js v22 (which is in Maintenance LTS status until ~April 2027) and install sf using npm. See Install the CLI With npm.
Plugin Providers
This announcement is about only the bundled Node.js version in our installers/tarballs. We will continue to support Node.js v22 while it's on the LTS support window, see https://nodejs.org/en/about/previous-releases for more information about Node.js releases.
