The custom object library is great for easily setting up relevent objects for your business, like a service object when you use services.

However there is very limited functionality to using the new objects in a workflow. For example I cannot create a service record when a deal is closed.

For theses custom objects to be functional they need more robust functionality and access through out the entire HubSpot platform

agreed. the info on top of the page states that it is usable in workflows. Reality seems otherwise.

Seems like the update should have been in beta still.
