CustomObject

The CustomObject services expose the functionality of the CustomObject objects to external applications.

TIP:   The reference information for each of Custom Objects follows the same pattern. In this topic, the information for CustomObject1 is given as an example.

The name of some CustomObject fields in the WSDL files for Web Services v2.0 differ from the names used in the WSDL files for Web Services v1.0. For example, the Web Services v1.0 fields ParentExternalSystemId and ParentName correspond to CustomObject1ExternalSystemId and CustomObject1Name for Web Services v2.0.

NOTE:  To download the CustomObject WSDL file, you must be given access to the relevant CustomObject object. If you do not have access to the CustomObject object, it is not available to download from the Web Services Administration page or available to use Web service calls. For assistance in gaining access to the CustomObject objects, contact your Oracle CRM On Demand service provider.

Support for Attachments

For Custom Object1 through 40, attachments are accessible through the following fields:

For Custom Object 4 through 40, the <Attachment> tag is used for the actual attachment and is a string type Base64. For Custom Object 1 through 3 however, the <PrimaryAttachment> tag is used for this purpose.

Requests that specify empty values for the following fields remove the associated attachment and clear all attachment-related field values:

• AttachFileName
• AttachFileExt
• Attachment

For Custom Object 1 through 3 you can also exchange attachments through the Attachment child object as described in Using Attachments with Web Services On Demand. For Custom Object 4 through 40, an Attachment child object is not accessible.
