Custom Fields used to only support text within the project "object". With new enhancements you will be able to use custom fields in:

  • Reports

  • Recipes

  • and more!

So how does it work?

  1. Create the custom field in Company Settings

    1. Define: where it will apply and what kind of data type it can use

      1. Object Level (is this custom field going to be applied on the project or task level?)

      2. Data Type (text, number, date, email, link, percentage, single select, and toggle)

  2. Validate

    1. Maintain accuracy and consistency of values

      1. Minimum & Maximum (you can set number or length limits)

      2. Require a value (during initial task or project creation)

  3. Populate

    1. Manually set values in UI

      1. In task drawer

      2. Project Table

    2. Automatically via API

      1. With recipe builder

      2. Dynamic fields *this will be available later
