I was looking through the Metadata API (and Partner) but can't find anywhere described how I can define via the API a custom object.
We have specific datasets which have to translate into Custom Objects in Salesforce via the API.
For instance a Home Repair dataset would include: Address, Estimate and Repair Date fields.
I want to translate this dataset into a Custom Object (named HomeRepair__c with those 3 custom fields) in Salesforce in our client's account via an API call.
Is this even possible?
Thanks.
