Understanding Objects Integrations
Published custom Objects are integrated with Liferay’s core frameworks, so you can leverage Liferay’s features to build unified experiences across the platform. This chart provides an overview of how Objects leverages these integrations.
Framework | Description |
---|---|
Asset | Use the Attachment field to upload files to your instance’s document library. |
Audit | Use the Audit application to review Object events with their user and resource info. |
Categorization | Add categorization tools to custom Object layouts so users can add tags and categories to entries. |
Headless | Liferay generates a headless endpoint for each published Object, so you can make REST calls. |
Info Framework | Use Object data with Display Page Templates, Fragments, Navigation Menus. Liferay also creates a Collection Provider for displaying its entries. |
Localization | Localize fields for Object definitions to better serve your global users. |
Permissions | Manage application and resource permissions to control access to Object definitions and their data. |
Workflow | Enable custom workflows for Objects to direct the creation, review, and publishing of Object entries. |
