Custom fields

Add the fields your business needs to any board, and tidy up the fields it came with.

Before you start

• To add, rename or hide a field, you need to be an owner or admin, or hold a role with the Data Model setting. See Roles & permissions.

Things to know

• There are 14 field types:

  Basic	Advanced	Relational
  Text, Long text, Number, Currency, Date, Email, URL, Phone, Checkbox	Select, Multi-select, Rating	People, Relation

• A Relation field links to records on another board. A People field links to people in your workspace.

• A relation field's target board can't be changed after you create it.

• Built-in fields can be renamed, hidden and reordered, but not deleted.

• Each board can have up to 25 custom fields on the Free plan, 100 on Starter and 500 on Growth.

Add a custom field

1. Go to Settings > Data model.
2. Under Boards, click the board, for example Deals.
3. On the Fields tab, click New field.
4. Choose a field type. Type in the search box to find one.
5. Type a Name. For Select and Multi-select, add the Options. For Relation, choose the Target board.
6. Click Save.

Edit or delete a custom field

1. On the board's Fields tab, open the menu at the end of the field's row.
2. Click Edit to change its name or options, or Delete to remove it.

Deleting a field removes it from every view, form and record for everyone, and its values stop showing. This can't be undone.

Rename, hide or reorder built-in fields

On the board's Fields tab:

• To rename a field, open the menu at the end of its row and click Rename.
• To hide a field, click the eye icon on its row. The data stays.
• To reorder fields, drag the rows.

Reset fields puts the order and visibility back to the default.
