Once you have completed creating a Custom Tab. In the Add To Custom Apps page, choose the App that you want this tab to be available for. Click Next. In the Add to Profiles page, I left the defaults and clicked Next. On the Custom Object Tabs section, click on New, choose Payments as the object and choose a style. This will be done by adding a lookup on the External Object to the Account object based on a custom external and required field. The data shown will only be related to the account being viewed. The second method will be showing this data contextually in the Account Page layout. The first method will be creating a Custom Tab where end users can create various views, and browse the data in a read-only fashion. I will surface this object’s data using two methods. Now that we have setup this object, we need to surface it somehow. You should be taken back to the External Data Source detail page where you will now see the previously selected table Payments as an external object in the related list. Consider each Custom External Object to be a Table. You can now choose which resources/tables you want to sync. The validate status should be “Success” and on the related list for external objects you will see all the available resources surfaced as available objects. We are now ready to add our external objects that are provided by the newly added data source. Notice the related list called External Objects. The page refreshes and shows you the detail view of your newly created data source. For Parameters, I will enter the OData service URL I will leave the rest of the fields with their default values. I will create an external data source called Third Party System of type Lightning Connect: OData 2.0.
Here let’s choose the name and type of our data source.
Let us first configure the External Data Source.įirst, go to Setup -> Manage External Data Sources -> Click New External Data Source. Here is a hands-on guide to using Salesforce Lightning Connect to show a related list of external data for a given account.
