Deciding which mode to use
External Objects vs Lightning Web Components
Omnata Connect for Salesforce, operates in one of two modes:
External data live-queried via External Objects, via a custom Salesforce Connect adapter
External data live-queried via our Lightning Web Components
The key difference is that External Objects can be used throughout the Salesforce platform, but require a Salesforce Connect license. Lightning Web Components do not require a Salesforce Connect license, but are limited to providing a record/list view of the data.
