# Supported Objects

User Interface API supports all custom objects and external objects and many standard objects.

To get a directory of objects that are supported by the API and accessible to the context user, use the [/ui-api/object-info](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.uiapi.meta/uiapi/ui_api_resources_object_info_directory.htm#ui_api_resources_object_info_directory "Get a directory of objects that are supported by User Interface API and accessible to the context user. The directory includes a /ui-api/object-info/{objectApiName} resource for each supported object.") resource.

To understand how the API operates on supported objects, let’s look at some examples.

This resource gets object metadata. It operates on any supported object.

GET /ui-api/object-info/{objectApiName}

This example gets Account metadata.

GET /ui-api/object-info/Account

This resource gets record data and metadata. It operates on any supported object record.

GET /ui-api/record-ui/{recordIds}

This example gets data and metadata to display an Opportunity record.

GET /ui-api/record-ui/006RM000002XCd1YAG

Most User Interface API resources support these objects. Related lists resources support every object supported by User Interface API. The list views and most recently used list views resources support smaller sets of objects. For a list of all supported objects, see [All Supported Objects](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.uiapi.meta/uiapi/ui_api_all_supported_objects.htm "User Interface API supports many standard objects as well as all custom and external objects.").
