How to Retrieve & Deploy New Profile From One Org to Another Org?

1. Standard Object – This will include Object & Field Level, Record Type Visibility, Tab Visibility permissions.

2. Custom Object – This will include Object & Field Level, Record Type Visibility, Tab Visibility permissions.

3. Apex Controller (Apex Class) – This include Class Access

4. VF Page (Apex page) – This include Page Access

5. System Permission (User Permission)

Once you retrieved – please delete following folders before you start your deployment

1. classes

2. objects

3. Pages

And also remove “ApexClass, ApexPage, CustomObject” from deployment package.xml. Deploy only profile. That profile contains all the permission.

Use below package.xml for retrieveal:
