Unable to upload plugin because of the word 'intellij' in pluginId

Hi,

Our plugin has been published on the JetBrains Marketplace for some time with the plugin ID that contains the word 'intellij`. Now when I am trying to publish new version of our plugin in marketplace, just after the upload we get the following error:

Invalid plugin descriptor 'plugin.xml'. The plugin ID 'c__.___.intellij' should not include the word 'intellij'.

I understand that this is due to the an existing rule, but reading things online I was under the impression that this will not block plugin upload and approvals. We’re currently unsure about the best way to proceed, and we need to release update for our plugin asap to fix certain issues.

Any clarification or suggested approach would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Hello,

This check shouldn’t affect existing plugins—only new ones. We’ll investigate why it’s occurring during your plugin update and continue the discussion through the support ticket.
