            Guidelines and Considerations

            • This action uses the Identify Object By Name (Object Management) action. Review considerations for this action in Salesforce Help.
            • When specifying the user whose access you’re checking, use the user’s full name or ID instead of the user’s email or username.
            • For better results, include the word “object” in questions about a user’s object permissions.
            • If the user is assigned object permissions via a session-based permission set, the action returns the object permissions whether the permission set is activated or not.
