Custom fields enable operators to add custom attributes to collect and store additional information. Custom fields are currently limited to the seller profile and shipping rules. By creating custom fields on these entities operators can gather specific information such as additional contact details or return addresses for sellers, or return options and service levels on shipping rules.
Custom fields are:
-
visible in:
- all seller profiles and shipping rules, which are editable by Operators.
- in the Account Settings and Shipping Rules in the Seller portal, which is editable by Sellers.
- grouped in sections that you create and define. You can create as many sections for custom fields as you like.
- currently available as text fields, numeric fields (integer and decimal), date and time fields, boolean (true/false), email and URL fields, and single-select and multi-select fields.
- able to be defined as mandatory or optional.
- can be assigned default values.
- can be ordered by assigning a position index.
Personally Identifiable Information
Custom fields must not be used to store personal data. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that no personal data, sensitive data, export-controlled data, or other regulated data is entered into any custom field when using the Marketplacer service.
Create and edit custom fields and custom field groups
Custom fields and custom field groups can only be added via the GraphQL API. This means you will need a developer’s help to implement. See our API documentation's full instructions for the customer field mutations and queries.
