Object Definition
You can extend the API by creating new custom objects and extending the standard objects with custom properties, You can do this via the API if you have the Administrator or Developer roles, or via the admin UI. For details on how to create and extend objects using the admin UI, see Data Model Setup.
At every level, custom objects and properties are prefixed with
c_
to differentiate them from standard properties that may be placed alongside in a document. For example, retrieving a custom property from a custom object might look like GET /c_records/551ebec0f6b25fd828742de1/c_info
Although a standard object's standard properties cannot be modified, custom properties can be added to extensible standard object classes.
Also some of the standard object’s properties can either be overridden or extended, including the
createAcl
, defaultAcl
and shareAcl
._id ObjectId | The object definition identifier. |
label String | The object label. |
name String | The object name. |
pluralName String | Based on the name, this is the name used in API routes. For example, to retrieve a list of c_thing objects, use GET /c_things |
description String | The object description. |
defaultAcl Document | All contexts objects of this type will have this ACL merged with their instance ACL. |
createAcl Document | These ACL targets are able to create context objects of this type. |
shareAcl Document | These ACL targets are able to share context objects of this type. The entries defined which access levels and roles can be assigned by which targets. |
shareChain Number | A caller can create a connection granting any level of access in the share chain, as long as it is less than his own. |
allowTransfers Boolean | Allow ownership transfer for this context's objects. |
allowConnections Boolean | Set to enable/disable sharing of contexts for this object. |
connectionOptions Document | Options around connection requests, such as whether to auto-accept and send-notification. |
properties Document Array | All of the properties defined in this object class. |
object String | The context’s object name. |
objectTypes Array | The object's types. For more info, see Object Types. |
hasETag Boolean | If true, an ETag property is made available and is (re)generated on an instance whenever it is updated. |
