Manage Big Objects

A big object stores and manages massive amounts of data on the Salesforce platform. You can archive data from other objects or bring datasets from outside systems into a big object to get a full view of your customers. From Setup, you can create a custom big object and define its fields and index.

Additional record capacity and Async SOQL query available as an add-on license.

From Setup, enter Big Objects in the Quick Find box, then select Big Objects. From this page you can:

  • Create a big object.
  • View and update details about a big object.
  • Delete a big object or view any big objects that were deleted in the last 15 days.
  • Create or Edit a Big Object
    Track and store big data that’s unique to your org. For existing big objects, a details page shows information about the big object’s fields and index.
