Is it possible to relate data categories to Salesforce Custom Object Records?

Posted by Nitish on April 30, 2016 at 4:57 PM

I have some data in Knowledge and Answers that I'd love to relate to other data in custom objects.

Is it possible to refer data categories from custom objects, besides sort of manually (and maintaining) building a multi-select that mirrors the data categories?

Hello,

No, Datacategories were designed as part of Salesforce Knowledge:

Data categories are used in Salesforce Knowledge (articles and article translations), Ideas, Answers, and Chatter Answers to help classify and find articles, questions, or ideas. You can use data categories to control access to a particular set of articles, questions or ideas.

Thanks.
