Creating and Editing Custom Objects

Custom Objects provide a powerful way to structure and manage this information if you have specialized data to track— such as properties, pets, events, or legal cases.

Step 1: Create Custom Object

Go to Settings > Objects > Click on "Add Custom Object"

Step 2: Add Details about Custom Object

  • Mention the singular name of the object e.g. Pet

  • A plural name of the object should be added e.g. Pets

  • Internal Name of the object and the primary field is created by default - it can be edited by clicking on the "</>" icon and updating the internal name.

  • Add a name for the primary display field name - e.g. Pet Name, Pet Identification Number

  • Add an icon to easily identify the custom object

  • Also - add a description to the object to help anyone understand what the object signifies.

  • Click on "Create Custom Object"

Step 3: Editing a Custom Object

  • Once the Custom Object is created, the custom object will start appearing on the same page.

  • You can click on any of the Custom Objects to start editing its details.

  • Note that the primary display field and the internal names cannot be edited once created. 

Deleting a Custom Object

  • Click on the 3 dots near the custom object name 

  • Select "Delete" from the dropdown.

  • Type "DELETE" in the text box and confirm deletion.

Please Note:

Deleting a custom object is an irreversible action. Once a custom object is deleted, all its records, associations, workflows and custom fields will be deleted and cannot be recovered anymore.
