Custom Objects

Anonymous · ‎11-04-2013

Hi ,
I was going through Marketo API and found that there is an API call to get Custom Objects. This brought few questions in my mind. I am new to Marketo and don't have any insight into custom objects. Please help me in answering following questions:
What are Custom Objects and what is their purpose?
How to create Custom Objects in Marketo?

Thanks

How I can come to know whether "custom object is successfully provisioned in my account"?

A Marketo custom object allows for the creation of a one-to-many relationship between your Marketo Leads and the custom object records. When the Marketo custom object is successfully provisioned in your account, you can:

Create/Read/Update/Delete records in the custom object via Marketo SOAP API

Use smart list trigger when new records are added to the custom object

Use the custom object data as a filter in smart lists (segmentation)

Use the custom object data in emails using [Marketo email scripting]

Bgomes, can you please help?

The API reference at the link you provided does not provide much information about Custom Objects, in order to proceed with:

Finding them in Marketo
Determining their name(s) ("objTypeName"), which is required in order to access them via the API

The API reference is a good start point to learn the custom objects
