Custom fields in tasks

This article explains how to create a custom field and make it visible in the task card

In Tasks, you can use default fields and also add custom ones. So, if youโ€™re missing a specific field โ€” simply create your own!

โ—๏ธCustom field functionality is available on Standard and Professional plans. Learn more about plans and their features โžก๏ธ [HERE].

Where to create and configure fields?

โ—๏ธOnly administrators and Workspace owners can create and configure custom fields.

You can do this on the Settings โ€“ Sections page. In the Tasks tab, expand the Fields settings block and select Custom fields.

How to create and configure a field?

Whether you're adding a field from the Settings page or directly in the task card, start by clicking Create a field button.

c7ecde91-d29b-420a-b121-a4c447542bd8

A creation form will open. First, give the field a title (required).

Next, you may edit the field ID. The system will auto-generate one using Latin characters, but you can enter your own.

โ—๏ธNote: The ID must contain only Latin characters.

Enter a Hint text โ€“ a short help message for users filling out the field in the task card.

If no custom text is entered, the system will use a default like:

"Enter a value for N" (where N is the field name).

Select a Field type from the list.

โ—๏ธNote: After creation, the field type cannot be changed.

๐Ÿ’ก The available field types are similar to those in CRM, except for "Binding to entity", which is not available in Tasks.

Select whether the field should be multiple-choice (i.e., allow selecting multiple values).

๐Ÿ’ก Multi-select fields will be marked with a special icon for easier identification.
