# Viewing Metadata in Detail View

The metadata of an object in **Detail view** varies according to the record and its respective **Object Type**. Further information on which metadata can be seen for which Object Type is found [here](/using-census-data/data-in-the-census-records.md).

In general, however, all records in the Detail view have the following basic structure. Below the image preview, the official name of the object appears in black letters. If the object is hierarchically subordinate to another object, the parent object appears above the name in gray font (for more on the hierarchical structure of various Object Types, see [here](/the-census-database-overview/the-hierarchical-structure-of-the-census-data.md)). Below the name of the object are the [Object Type](/the-census-database-overview/the-census-data-model.md) and the [CensusID](/the-census-database-overview/censusids.md). Below this, all metadata for the object is displayed. The structure of the metadata varies depending on the Object Type.
