Creating and Managing Objects

Available Liferay DXP/Portal 7.4+

Liferay Objects provides a convenient UI for creating custom applications that meet your business needs without writing code. You can also use Objects to manage and extend both system and custom objects. This includes adding fields, relationships, actions, layouts, views, validations, and custom states. See Objects Application Permissions to learn about the permissions necessary for performing these and other actions related to object definitions.

note

System objects are default Liferay applications integrated with the objects framework, while custom objects are definitions created and published by a user.
