Creating and Managing Objects

Liferay 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. You can also use the Model Builder GUI to design complex object structures. This graphical tool shows object definitions as cards and visualizes relationships between definitions. See Using the Objects Model Builder for more information.

Note

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

Searching for Objects

You can use two configurations in the Objects application to exert control over searching for object entries:

  1. Enable or disable search for an object definition’s entries using the Enable Indexed Search configuration in its Details tab.

  2. If the object is indexed for searching, configure the each field’s search behavior.

See Searching for Liferay Objects for more information.
