Custom Objects ā Association Limits
š Overview
You can now configure how many relationships can exist between objects in your Custom Objects setup. This helps prevent over-association and improves data clarity.
Weāve introduced association limits to ensure more structured object management
Note
: To enable this feature, go to Settings > Labs > Association Limits Handling, and toggle it on.
āØ Whatās New
Association Limits
For multi-label associations:
- One-to-One (1:1)
- One-to-N (where N ā¤ 1000)
- One-to-Many
- Many-to-Many
For contact-to-contact (single label):
- One-to-One
- Many-to-Many
- Custom N-to-N
š UI Improvements
- Preview of association direction + counts when configuring
