Custom Fields

The Custom Fields functionality enables you to add custom attributes against businesses via the Businesses API. For example, you might want to track which users are on your enterprise plan by creating a custom field called: has_enterprise_plan and making the available options Yes and No.

Custom fields can be set when creating or updating a business by supplying a custom_fields payload. (More information and examples here)

When Custom fields are set for a business, they are returned in a custom_field_values property by the Businesses API.

Creating a Custom Field record

Currently, the only way to create a Custom Field record is through the admin area on our portal by visiting the Custom fields area and clicking + Create custom field and following the steps.
