A custom object feed shows posts and comments about the object as well as recent changes to the object’s tracked fields. Feeds offer a useful way to stay up-to-date with changes made to a custom object. The object name is variable and uses a Custom Object__Feed syntax, where Custom Object is the Object Name for the custom object. For example, Article Type__Feed represents a feed object for the custom object named Article Type.

Supported Calls

delete(), describeSObjects(), getDeleted(), getUpdated(), query(), retrieve()

You can delete all feed items you created. To delete feed items you didn’t create, you must have one of these permissions:

    Users with the “Moderate Chatter” permission can delete only the feed items and comments they see.

    Note
