Abstract
Techniques for providing custom metadata in a multi-tenant database environment in which hardware and software of the multi-tenant database system is shared by one or more organizations, each having one or more corresponding users. Each of the organizations has associated organization data and organization metadata. Activating procedural code is triggered in response to a trigger event determined by a platform interface. The procedural code is to query the organization metadata provided by the associated organization through a metadata interface provided by a platform developer. The platform interface is provided by the platform developer and the procedural code utilizes compile time dependencies to generate custom metametadata to be maintained by the platform developer and to be provided to the organizational metadata, which is to be maintained by the corresponding organization. The organization data owned by the organization is written to with the procedural code in response to results of the query.
