1. A database system-implemented method, comprising:
- accessing, by and incorporating into the database system, a first software application via a first computing device;
requesting, by the database system, a data file having data relating to a second software application;
detecting, by the database system, data types relating to the data within the data file;
classifying, by the database system, the data types into one or more categories;
creating, by the database system, one or more dynamic objects based on the one or more categories, wherein the dynamic objects are different from and independent of administrative objects associated with the first software application;
associating, by the database system, the one or more dynamic objects with the data types based on the one or more categories; and
uploading, via the first software application at the database system, the data file relating to the second software application.

Abstract
In accordance with embodiments, there are provided mechanisms and methods for facilitating evaluation of data types for dynamic lightweight objects in an on-demand services environment. In one embodiment and by way of example, a method includes uploading a data file having data at a first computing device in response to a request, and detecting data types relating to the data within the data file. The detecting includes scanning data rows and data columns of the data file. The method may further include classifying the detected data types into one or more categories, and creating one or more dynamic objects based on the one or more categories.

8. A system comprising:
-
a first computing device having a memory to store instructions, and a processing device to execute the instructions, the computing device further having a mechanism to; access a first software application via the first computing device; request a data file having data relating to a second software application; detect data types relating to the data within the data file; classify the data types into one or more categories; and create one or more dynamic objects based on the one or more categories, wherein the dynamic objects are different from and independent of administrative objects associated with the first software application; associating, by the database system, the one or more dynamic objects with the data types based on the one or more categories; and uploading, via the first software application at the database system, the data file relating to the second software application. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A non-transitory machine-readable medium having stored thereon instructions which, when executed by a machine, cause the machine to:
-
access a first software application via the first computing device; request a data file having data relating to a second software application; detect data types relating to the data within the data file; classify the data types into one or more categories; create one or more dynamic objects based on the one or more categories, wherein the dynamic objects are different from and independent of administrative objects associated with the first software application; associating, by the database system, the one or more dynamic objects with the data types based on the one or more categories; and uploading, via the first software application at the database system, the data file relating to the second software application. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16)
