- Properties
- Filter, Group, Sort
- Description
- The unique name of the object in the API. This name can contain only
underscores and alphanumeric characters, and must be unique in your org. It
must begin with a letter, not include spaces, not end with an underscore, and
not contain two consecutive underscores. In managed packages, this field
prevents naming conflicts on package installations. With this field, a
developer can change the object’s name in a managed package and the changes
are reflected in a subscriber’s organization.
When creating large sets of
data, always specify a unique DeveloperName for each
record. If no DeveloperName is specified, performance
may slow while Salesforce generates one for each record.
