Object Permissions

Overview

The custom_objects value in the JSON has permission information for accessing, editing, and creating custom object and their entity records. There is a permission for creating new objects, as well as breakdowns by object ID for more granular control.

The map of objects in custom_object_entities provides permission information about entities for a particular object. Similar to the contact object, each custom object has controls for whether the current user has permission to create entities.

When fetching a custom object, the access property in the response can be used to determine if the current user has view, edit, or remove access. The response includes each value individually:

{
  "view": true,
  "edit": true,
  "remove": true
}

In the next section, Contact Permissions, you’ll learn how permissions for contacts are represented in API responses and how they determine whether a user can create, edit, or perform bulk actions on contact records.
