👉 Custom fields for roles and members are limited with the Start and Rise plans, and unlimited with the Scale and Enterprise plans. Find out more!

Administrators can create or edit custom fields visible on members' profiles as well as roles and circles' pages. Custom fields are used to display additional information and they apply to all members or roles/circles in the organization.

All members are able to view custom fields.

The attributes come up using the search tool: you can use them to help people easily find what they're looking for in your organization.

Note: Custom fields can also be used with the API.
