User Guide

To use the integration, search for the Create Object Record command, which will display all your active standard and custom objects currently in your twentyCRM. Its very flexible - if you create new objects or deactivate existing ones, this will automatically reflect those changes.

1.Twenty.mp4

When you deactivate any standard or custom object, it will no longer appear, ensuring you only see the information and objects you want to access. This makes the integration extensible and enhances your productivity.

2.Twenty.mp4

If you create new custom objects, they will appear, allowing you to quickly create your records instantly from Raycast.

3.Twenty.mp4

To create a record for any object, select your target object and press ENTER. This will open a form that matches the exact table schema you created in your CRM, following any validations it suggests to successfully create your record by pressing CMD + ENTER. Records cannot be created with an empty first column (such as Name, Title, etc.).

4.Twenty.mp4

Similar to creation of standard objects record you can create custom objects record

5.Twenty.mp4

It's much more flexible—similar to objects, if you deactivate any fields, they will no longer appear in your object schema during record creation.

6.Twenty.mp4

No worries! If you add or update any fields in your standard objects, they will automatically appear in your object schema form in Raycast, looking closely you will see, if you add a select field with a default value provided some icon, it will display exactly what you’ve set when creation.

Roadmap

• Currently we support FULL_NAME, TEXT, LINKS, EMAILS, SELECT.
• Supporting other fields are easy as we have build the foundation and its quite similar to what we have already build.
• PHONE_NUMBER, CURRENCY similar to LINKS
• RATING (1, 2, 3, 4, 5 as option), BOOLEAN (True or False as option), MULTI_SELECT are similar to SELECT
• RELATION Similar to SELECT but requires additional work but doable
• support seeing records of all objects

I have also matched colors of options Icons to match ours. here: https://github.com/Nabhag8848/twenty-raycast-integration/blob/main/src/enum/icons.ts#L12

Looking for feedbacks on how we can improve this much more, If this is a kind of solution, what you folks were looking for, I would love to release this to raycast marketplace and we can do that from a twenty's account which will help for better visibility and much much more.

Hi @Nabhag8848,

First I would like to apologize for the slow review. I have taken a deep look at your code and this is very interesting. Your extension is actually more in line with our flexible data model philosophy powered by objectMetadata than the existing one: https://github.com/raycast/extensions/tree/main/extensions/twenty/src.

We have been debating this internally and we would love to have the community build and maintain a Raycast extension. I'm happy to guide you if you need any help.

I'm not going to need this PR as oss.gg event is closed the folder has been removed but if you want to update https://github.com/raycast/extensions/tree/main/extensions/twenty/src and take over it I would support this community maintained extension

Thanks again for all the work
