What are custom data fields?
Custom data fields are a method for storing and representing event attendee data. This feature allows event hosts to import extra information that they already have about their invitees (such as company name, job title, employee ID, etc).
Custom data fields are available exclusively with RSVPify for Enterprise.
When would I use custom data fields?
Custom data fields are helpful when you already have information about your invitees that you want to store in RSVPify without asking them to provide it during registration.
For example, imagine you’re hosting an employee conference. Your invite list already includes each employee’s company, job title, department, and employee ID. You can import that information as custom data fields and use it to:
Include company names and job titles on attendee badges
Help your event team identify departments, VIPs, or attendee groups
Filter and export attendee information for reporting
Keep internal reference information connected to each invitee
Custom data fields are added by the event host and are different from custom questions, which collect new information directly from attendees during registration.
How does it work?
Custom data fields can be imported when importing the invite list. Here are the steps:
Create the invite list
Add a custom data column (such as company name, job title, etc)
In the import process create and map your custom data fields
Proceed with the import
Managing Custom Data Fields
You can manage the custom data fields via Event Settings > Manage Tags & Custom Data Fields.
Under the 'Custom Data Fields' tab you can add, remove or rename existing data fields.
