You can now extend the perspectives from the Celonis catalog with further objects, events, relationships, and event logs. In the perspectives editor, pick a Celonis perspective from one of our Celonis catalog processes that you've enabled, and choose Extend to create a custom extension for it.

• Your extension can use custom or Celonis catalog objects, events, and relationships.

• You can connect objects in your extension to the objects in the Celonis perspective by including or embedding them. Embedding (where you use a copy of the object type) is safer as there's no risk of creating a cycle in the Celonis perspective. You can also connect objects in your extension to other objects in the extension.

• You can add custom event logs that use objects in your extension as the lead object type. You can also change the default event log for the perspective to be one of these.

• We'll save your extension separately from the Celonis perspective, so you can view and use the original perspective with or without the extension, and you can create more than one custom extension for the same Celonis perspective.

If you've already created a custom perspective to use instead of a Celonis perspective, consider adding your customizations as an extension to the Celonis perspective instead. Celonis perspectives get updated with the latest changes and fixes when you update your Celonis catalog version, so they'll continue to meet the requirements for the Celonis apps and features that use them. Using objects and events for process mining explains how to use perspectives.
