Start creating
Click Create contact field. The window explains that the field will appear on contacts across the workspace.
3
Configure the field
4
Save
Click Create field. The field receives an ID, which you copy with Copy ID to use in integrations and the API.
Organize, archive, and delete
- Use Move up and Move down to reorder. Clear the search before reordering.
- Archive removes the field from forms and keeps the saved values. Use Restore to bring it back.
- Delete field permanently removes the definition. If any contact already has a value in the field, deletion is blocked. In that case, archive it.
The Deal tab creates fields for deals in Pipelines. These fields are available across the workspace, and you choose which ones appear on each Pipeline. See Deals →.

Save
Press Enter or click outside the field. In lists, choose the option you want. Press Esc to cancel.
Filled in by the AI agent
The AI agent can fill in additional fields during the conversation. For example, it asks for the city and the plan of interest and saves the answers on the contact before transferring to your team.- In the agent, open the Skills tab and turn on the native Update contact skill.
- In the training, explain which information the agent should collect and the names of the matching fields.
- Test with Test Agent and check the contact’s History.
Use the fields
Best practices
- Prefer Select over Text when the possible values are known. This avoids spelling variations and makes filtering easier.
- Mark as Required only what is truly essential.
- Archive instead of deleting fields that already have data.
- Use clear names, since they appear to your team and in campaign filters.
