## API
|
|
API (Application Programming Interface) allows you to connect Twenty with other software systems and build custom integrations.
|
|
|
|
## Command Menu
|
|
The Command Menu is a quick-access interface (opened with `Cmd + K` on Mac and `Ctrl + K` on Windows) that lets you perform actions, create records, and navigate your workspace efficiently.
|
|
|
|
## Company & People
|
|
The CRM has two fundamental types of records:
|
|
- A `Company` represents a business or organization.
|
|
- `People` represent your company's current and prospective customers or clients.
|
|
|
|
## Custom Fields

Custom Fields are data fields you create to capture information specific to your business needs and processes.
|
|
|
|
## Data Model
|
|
A Data Model is the structure that defines how information is organized in your CRM, including what objects exist, their properties (fields), and how they relate to each other.
|
|
|
|
## Favorites
|
|
Favorites are records you've marked for quick access, appearing in your sidebar for instant navigation to important data.
|
|
|
|
## Field

Integration are built-in tools that allow to link Twenty with other software or systems.
|
|
|
|
## Kanban
|
|
A `Kanban` is a visual way to track your business processes using cards and columns. Each column represents a stage in your process (for example: new, ongoing, won, lost), and you move records through these stages as they progress.
|
|
|
|
## Object
|
|
An Object is a data structure that represents a specific type of entity in your CRM (like People, Companies, or Opportunities). Objects can be standard (built-in) or custom (created by you).
|
|
|
|
## Opportunities
|
|
Opportunities in Twenty CRM are potential deals or sales with accounts or contacts.
|
|
|
|
## Record
|
|
A Record indicates an instance of an object, like a specific account or contact.
|
|
|
|
## Relation Fields
|
|
Relation Fields create connections between different objects, allowing you to link records together (like connecting a Person to a Company).
|
|
|
|
## Standard Fields
|
|
Standard Fields are pre-built data fields that come with objects by default and provide common functionality across all workspaces.
|
|
|
|
## Tasks
|
|
Tasks in Twenty CRM are assigned activities relating to contacts, accounts, or opportunities.
|
|
|
|
## Views
|
|
You can customize the display of your records using views, setting different filters, layouts and sorting options for each view.
|
|
|
|
## Webhooks
|
|
Webhooks are automated messages sent from Twenty to other applications when specific events occur, enabling real-time data synchronization.
|
|
|
|
## Workflows
|
|
Workflows are automated processes that trigger actions based on specific conditions, helping you automate repetitive tasks and business processes.
|
|
|
|
## Workspace
|
|
A `Workspace` typically represents a company using Twenty. It holds all the records and data that you and your team members add to Twenty.
|
|
It has a single domain name, which is typically the domain name your company uses for employee email addresses.
|
|
|
|
## Workspace Members

|
Workspace Members are the Twenty users from your team who have access to your workspace. They can be assigned as owners or assignees for records.
