# Define profiles as AL objects
## Description
Profiles delivered by a Marketplace extension must be declared as AL `profile` objects. A profile object is validated with its Role Center and page customizations when the extension is compiled and is registered through extension synchronization. Inserting profile-table records from install or setup code bypasses that object lifecycle.
## Best Practice
Declare each app-owned profile with the `profile` object and set its `RoleCenter`, user-facing caption, and optional customizations in AL. Let installation and synchronization register the object.
See sample: [`define-profiles-as-al-objects.good.al`](define-profiles-as-al-objects.good.al).
## Anti Pattern
Install, upgrade, or setup code that creates an app-owned profile by inserting a `Profile` table record. Detection signal: a `Record Profile` variable followed by `Insert` in profile provisioning code.
See sample: [`define-profiles-as-al-objects.bad.al`](define-profiles-as-al-objects.bad.al).
