Custom fields let you attach structured data to every task in a workspace beyond the built-in properties. Use them to track anything your workflow requires, effort scores, budget figures, customer tiers, review stages, or any other property your team cares about.

Create a custom field

1

Open Settings

Go to Settings > Custom fields.
2

Add a field

Click Add field.
3

Name it and choose a type

Give the field a clear name and select the field type that matches the data you want to capture.
4

Configure the field

Depending on the type, set additional options such as icon, color, currency, decimal places, or dropdown options.
5

Save

Click Create to add the field to every task in the workspace.

Field types

Rating field options

When you choose Rating, you can pick the icon shape (star, heart, flag, and others) and the color used to render filled icons. The field stores a value from 1 to 5. When you choose Dropdown, define the list of options in the field settings. Options can be reordered and each choice is stored as a plain text label.

Money field options

When you choose Money, select the ISO 4217 currency code (for example USD, EUR, GBP) and the number of decimal places (0 or 2).

Set a field value on a task

Open any task and scroll to the Custom Fields section in the right-hand sidebar. Click the field to enter or change its value. Changes save immediately.

Restrict field access

By default, a custom field is visible to all workspace members. You can restrict a field to specific members by setting an Allowed users list in the field settings. Members not on the list cannot see the field on tasks — it is completely hidden from their task sidebar and cards. Only members explicitly included in the list can see and edit the field on tasks, including workspace owners unless they are listed. Workspace owners and admins always see every field in Settings → Custom Fields so they can manage the workspace configuration.

Reorder fields

Drag the handle next to a field name in Settings > Custom fields to change the order in which fields appear on task cards and in the sidebar.

Edit or delete a field

Click the pencil icon next to a field to edit its name, configuration, or access settings. Click the trash icon to delete it.
Deleting a custom field permanently removes the field and all values stored against it across every task in the workspace. This cannot be undone.

Show or hide custom fields on task cards

Custom fields appear as property badges on task cards in list and board view. You can control which fields are visible using the Properties panel in the list settings menu. See List settings for details.
