What is Custom Object List View?


Custom Object List View displays your records in a structured table format with rows and columns, similar to a spreadsheet. This layout improves visibility and makes it easier to manage large sets of data without switching between multiple screens.


Instead of opening individual records, you can quickly review, compare, and update information directly from one centralized view.

  • Flexible Sorting: Organize records based on important fields

  • Customizable Layout: Show only the fields you need
