2Any reason why you can't make a tab for it ?– Samuel De RyckeSep 30, 2014 at 13:46

Only reason I can think is if the OP is up against the Tab limit. But if not, just make a tab, life will be so much easier :)– Ricky HewittSep 30, 2014 at 16:39

If you know the object key prefix then you can view records of that object:
Let's say you have a custom object and its has key-prefix is a00. You can view its record by going to URL:
https://na9.salesforce.com/a00 (https://sfdc_instance.salesforce.com/objectkeyprefix)
Key-prefix is the first three characters of object's any record.

You can find the key prefix using the workbench: workbench.developerforce.com/login.php Sep 30, 2014 at 16:38

Open the Execute Anonymous window in the developer console and execute:
Schema.DescribeSObjectResult r = AdBookUdfMap__c.sObjectType.getDescribe();
System.debug(URL.getSalesforceBaseUrl().toExternalForm() +'/'+ r.getKeyPrefix() );
The corresponding debug log will contain something like:
07:56:09:031 USER_DEBUG [2]|DEBUG|https://cs2.salesforce.com/a16

How come SF makes it so hard to access an object's page if there's no tab associated with it? Why not have a button linking to the prefix url on the custom object's view fields page?– ArthleteMar 8, 2018 at 20:43

1@Arthlete I'm not sure it would be useful to all users, as admins probably want to control which pages they have access to under certain apps. I did raise the idea: Provide an Admin page that lists all the accessible key prefixes within an Org Mar 8, 2018 at 20:45
