System Fields

The standard system fields are:

• Common to, and predefined in, all Objects.
• Created automatically when an object is created.
• Populated automatically when a record is added or updated in the GUI.
• Required when a record is added or updated using an API.

Field Name	REST Search Name	GUI Label	Display Type	Description
object_id	object_id	Object ID	Number	Unique identifier for the object. (This field is always present, but is only displayed when examining Object metadata (the data that defines the object).
record_id	id	Record ID	Number	Unique record identifier
owner_id	OWNERID	Owner	String	Unique identifier of the record's owner
owner_team_id	OWNER_TEAM_ID	n/a	String	Unique identifier of record owner's primary team. (This is a virtual field that does not actually exist in the record. The actual field is in the User object. It is returned in APIs, to keep from having to access the database a second time to check permissions.)
created_id	CREATEDID	Created By	String	Unique identifier of the the user who created the record
date_created	DATECREATED	Date Created	String	Date the record was created: UTC Format in the REST API. User's Date Format in the GUI and the Java API.
date_modified	DATEMODIFIED	Date Modified	String	Date the record was last modified: UTC Format in the REST API. User's Date Format in the GUI and the Java API.
modified_id	MODIFIEDID	Modified By	String	Unique identifier of the user who last modified the record
