What is the name of the entity (layer) between the object from the database and the object for the client?

Question

API

Let's say we pull the user account object from the database, the fields are email, hash, salt, name, createdAt. On the client, you need to give the fields email, name, createdAt. What is the name of this "entity" that filters the fields in the object and gives the client what is needed (that is, email, name, createdAt)?

Answer 1

See what you specifically mean. Most likely DTO

Answer 2

Model?

Answer 3

Well, I don’t know about sending it to the client, but DTO is doing the receiving, and the model is working with the database.

Answer 4

It's called ORM - Object Relational Mapper
