<p class="p">Admins can create <a class="xref" href="https://support.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/5914453843994" target="_blank">custom objects</a> to capture data that doesn't fit into
Zendesk's standard objects (tickets, users, and organizations). Extending the Zendesk
data model with custom objects enables you to seamlessly integrate your custom data with
tickets, triggers, and Explore analytics.</p>

manage the object's custom fields, and define agent access to the object.</p>
