# Zendesk - Custom objects

Zendesk allows you to create custom objects to model, store, and retrieve objects that are not native to Zendesk (for example, Tickets, Users, Organization). Custom objects can be configured to suit your various use-cases.

Workato allows you to interact with custom objects in the same way you interact with native Zendesk objects. You can create, read, update, and delete custom objects through recipe actions.

To access custom objects control, login to your Zendesk instance and find Sunshine Platform.

After configuring your custom object type, you can proceed to create records, get records, update records, and delete records through recipe actions.

# Custom relationships

You can also configure custom relationships between two custom objects or between a custom object and Zendesk object (for example, Zendesk:user). This gives you more control over how objects interact and allow you to use your data in more meaningful ways.

You can view your custom relationship types in the Relationship types tab.
