# Scan for Patterns with Data Detect Legacy-Managed Package

Data Detect legacy-managed package scans data based on your Data Detect policy settings. You can scan data in activated policies at any time.

### Required Editions

![Note](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-xcloud-setup-264-0-0-production-enus/6f21df35-9ea0-4f53-ac94-45c3b5dfd5bc/images/icon_note.png)

Note The Data Detect legacy-managed package is unavailable for Summer '26. If you enabled Data Detect legacy-managed package before Summer '26, it remains available in your Salesforce org. We recommend that you use the new Salesforce Data Detect app instead. The new Data Detect app is now part of the Shield app. See [Data Detect End of Support](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=005132108&type=1&language=en_US).
