Assign a record identifier.

[Bonapara]

Scope & Context

The identifiers for records in an object view are the "name" and "illustration" of each record, They will be displayed in the first column of an object table view.

• Record text identifier can either be a text field or a Number field. (In the future they might also be Computed fields)
• Record image identifier should be an image field type (Not implemented yet)

Expected behavior

In the settings, on a Custom Object detail page, the second column of the fields should be "Identifier" instead of "Field type" (As all fields of a custom object are custom)

Edit a record text identifier

The first method is to click on the dropdown menu for the fields:

The second method is shown in the creation and detail page of the custom field settings. But only for custom fields of custom objects! As mention in the scope section, this section should only appear when the above field type has been set to text or number

Table views

As for Standard objects, the record identifier should be displayed in the first column of the table. It should not be movable or hideable.

Note we also have a similar concept on standard objects (cf entityChipDisplayMapper I think), we should probably unify all
