Just starting to look at it, the video say just to import data, is that using the CSV file?  Nothing on how to do that.  Using CSV is good for things that don’t change that often like ones a months. 
Second way is to use the API I guess. 

Can this objects be used in automations? ( Like you can in Freshservice ) 

 

Go to Admin -> Support Operations -> Custom Objects. Click on 'Create a custom object' Enter the Custom Object name, in this case, we can use 'Orders' Enter a description for the object.
