# Data Source : Salesforce

Salesforce objects and fields are analogous to database tables and the table columns. 

Objects already created by Salesforce are called standard objects.

Objects that you create in your organization with the user interface or with the Metadata API are called custom objects.

Objects you create that map to data stored outside your organization are called external objects.

You can access the Objects and Fields in your salesforce account, so use them as data source for your custom app.
