This release introduces scheduling capabilities to object entries, allowing users to define when an entry should go live, expire, or be reviewed. This brings Objects closer to real content lifecycle management — similar to what already exists in Web Content — and enables automation for time-sensitive data.

With this feature, object entries can be activated or deactivated automatically based on predefined dates, and optional review dates help teams stay compliant with legal, operational, or business rules.

Key Benefits:

• Scheduling gives users more control over when content or data becomes visible, expires, or needs review — reducing manual work and improving timing accuracy. It helps teams automate recurring tasks (such as publishing promotions or removing expired assets), avoid compliance risks, and ensure content stays up to date. With built-in notifications, users are always informed of upcoming actions, making lifecycle management simpler and more reliable.

This release introduces a new Assignee field type for Liferay Objects, enabling entry-level ownership and task assignment. With this field, object entries can now be assigned to Users or Roles, making Objects suitable for workflow-style, task-driven, and ownership-based applications.

Once assigned, the user or role automatically gains permission to edit the entry, even if they did not previously have it explicitly. This makes it possible to build review flows, approval processes, service desks, onboarding pipelines, partner applications, and more, all using native Objects.

Key Benefits:

• The Assignee field brings native task ownership to Objects, allowing teams to build assignment-based processes with automatic permissions, "My Entries" filtering, and full API and UI support. This reduces the need for custom logic, enables clearer responsibility tracking, and unlocks use cases like approvals, case management, service requests, onboarding workflows, and more.

This feature introduces a new permission that allows object administrators to control who can download files attached to object entries. With this enhancement, each attachment field can define its own download permission, ensuring that only authorized users are able to retrieve files — without blocking visibility or access to the entry itself.

Key Benefits:

• This feature adds granular control to file downloads, allowing administrators to manage who can retrieve sensitive attachments without restricting access to the rest of the entry. It improves security, supports compliance workflows, and aligns Object attachments with the permission flexibility already available in Documents & Media.

This epic introduces multi-parent support for Object Definitions, allowing a single child object (e.g., Address) to be associated with more than one possible parent definition (e.g., User or Account). While the definition can support multiple parents, each Object Entry can still only belong to one parent entry at a time, ensuring data consistency.

Key Benefits:

• This new feature allows more flexibility when organizing your entries with regards to permissions inheritance.
