Contacts
Custom fields
Define extra fields to track on every contact, beyond the built-in ones.
Custom fields add extra structured data to every contact, on top of the built-in name, email, phone, and company. They're workspace-wide — once defined, every contact gets a value slot for it, and forms can write to it directly on submission.

|---|---|
TEXT | Plain text |
NUMBER | Number |
DATE | Date |
BOOLEAN | Checkbox |
SELECT | One choice from a list of options |
MULTISELECT | Multiple choices from a list of options |

Creating a custom field
- Go to Settings → Custom Fields.
- Fill in:
- Key — lowercase letters, numbers, and underscores, starting with a letter

- Type — one of the types above.
- Options — only shown for
SELECT/MULTISELECT; a comma-separated list (e.g.SaaS, Agency, E-commerce).
- Key — lowercase letters, numbers, and underscores, starting with a letter
(e.g.
- Click Add custom field.
The field now appears on every contact's detail page under Custom Fields, and as a selectable target in a form field's Maps to contact field setting (see Field types and conditional logic).
There's no rename or edit for an existing custom field's key or type once created — deleting and re-creating it is the only option, and deleting removes the stored values too.
