# apex:remoteObjectField

Defines the fields to load for an sObject. Fields defined using this component, instead of the `fields` attribute of `<apex:remoteObjectModel>`, can have a shorthand name, which allows the use of a "nickname" for the field in client-side JavaScript code, instead of the full API name. Use as child of `<apex:remoteObjectModel>`.

## Attributes

|`jsShorthand`|String|The shorthand, or nickname, that can be used instead of the full field name in JavaScript code.| |43.0||
|`name`|String|The API name of the sObject field.|Yes|43.0||
|`rendered`|Boolean|A Boolean value that specifies whether the component is rendered on the page. If not specified, this value defaults to true.| |14.0|global|
