Custom fields

Agencies often add details such as a manager's contact or an internal ID to every candidate they share. Custom fields do this. They are values you define once for the organization, and DOCX templates can include them for every profile.

#Adding custom fields

1. Open Administration → Profiles and find Custom fields.
2. Choose Add field and enter the field name, for example “Availability”.
3. Optionally enter a default value.
4. Choose Add field to add it to the list, then choose Save settings.

Use the edit and delete buttons in the list to change or remove a field later, then choose Save settings. Only owners and admins can add, edit or delete fields.

#Using custom fields in templates

A template looks a field up by its name through custom_fields. For a field named Availability:

{{ custom_fields["Availability"] }}

The value comes from the field's default. Use the same syntax anywhere in a template. For the other variables a template can read, see Template variables reference.
