Special Access Rules
- All objects may not be available in your org. Some objects require specific feature settings and permissions to be enabled.
- For more special access rules, if any, see the documentation for the standard object. For example, for AccountChangeEvent, see the special access rules for Account.
Change Event Support
Change events are available for all custom objects and a subset of standard objects. Change events aren't supported for objects that correspond to custom settings. For more information about standard object support, see Objects That Follow This Model.
Change Event Name
The name of a change event is based on the name of the corresponding object for which it captures the changes.
- Standard Object Change Event Name
-
1<Standard_Object_Name>ChangeEvent - Example: AccountChangeEvent
- Custom Object Change Event Name
-
1<Custom_Object_Name>__ChangeEvent - Example: MyCustomObject__ChangeEvent
Change Event Fields
The fields that a change event can include correspond to the fields on the associated parent Salesforce object, with a few exceptions. For example, AccountChangeEvent fields correspond to the fields on Account.
The fields that a change event doesn’t include are:
- The IsDeleted system field.
- The SystemModStamp system field.
- Any field whose value isn’t on the record and is derived from another record or from a formula, except roll-up summary fields, which are included. Examples are formula fields. Examples of fields with derived values include LastActivityDate and PhotoUrl.
Each change event also contains header fields. The header fields are included inside the ChangeEventHeader field. They contain information about the event, such as whether the change was an update or delete and the name of the object, like Account.
In addition to the event payload, the event schema ID is included in the schema field. Also included is the event-specific field, replayId, which is used for retrieving past events.
