Influencer Marketing: How do I create a Custom Field?

Influencer Marketing's Custom Fields gives organization admins the tools to track custom information in three areas of the platform: Profiles, Campaigns and Creator Cards within a Campaign.

Types of Custom Fields

There are seven different types of Custom Fields in Influencer Marketing, all of which are available for Profile, Campaign or Creator Custom Fields:

• Small Textbox - One line text box used to input a single line of information.
• Large Textbox - Text box that expands, allowing for additional information to be added as needed.
• Dropdown - Users can choose from the options they input while creating the field. You can only select one option for this type of field.
• Multi-Select Drop-down - Users can choose from the options input when creating this field and can add multiple sets for a single Custom Field.
• Number - This field creates a small textbox that only allows for numbers as an input.
• Attachment - Users can upload attachments in the attachment field.
• Date - Users can add dates to this field, either manually with their keyboard or using the pop-up calendar function.

To access Custom Fields:

1. Click your user icon and click Settings.
2. Click the Custom Fields tab.

Profile Custom Fields

Profile Custom Fields let you collect and display data within a creator’s profile. Any information collected or fields created from a Profile Custom Field is proprietary to your organization and no users outside of your organization will see this data.
