Custom fields

Track what your business actually cares about. Custom fields show up everywhere a contact does — kanban cards, form mappings, agent prompts.

Field types

  • Text — short string (e.g. "Service address").
  • Long text — multi-line notes.
  • Number — integer or decimal (e.g. "Square footage").
  • Currency — formatted with the workspace's default currency.
  • Date — calendar date (e.g. "Last service").
  • Single-select — pick one from a list (e.g. equipment brand).
  • Multi-select — pick many.
  • Boolean — yes/no toggle.
  • URL — clickable link.

Adding a field

Settings → Custom fields → "New field." Name, type, and (for selects) the option list. New fields appear on every contact retroactively, with a null value until you fill them in.

Through Claude Code

"Add a 'Last invoice paid' date field to my contacts so I can track payment lag."

Where they show up

  • Contact detail page (in a "Custom fields" section).
  • Kanban deal cards (you pick which fields to surface).
  • Form field mapping (so a form's "Service address" field auto-fills the contact's "Service address" custom field).
  • Agent prompts — your chatbot can read custom fields when answering ("Hi Jane, last time we serviced your furnace was March — would you like to schedule maintenance?").
  • CSV exports.

Renaming and deleting

Renaming a field is safe — all data is preserved, only the label changes. Deleting permanently removes the data from every contact — there's a confirmation step that lists how many records are affected.
