Are custom fields searchable?

  • Updated

Yes, all Custom Fields are searchable in the Events List except Grouped Custom Fields. The reason for this is that Grouped Custom Fields can include a very large amount of fields which can be difficult to show in a table format.

Searching for the value of a Custom Field is a two-step process:

  1. Add the Custom Field Column to the List.
  2. Search for the specific value of the Custom Field.

How to add the Custom Fields Columns to the Events List

  1. Go to Events > Events.
  2. Click on Fields.
  3. Scroll down to the bottom of the dropdown, to the Custom Columns section, and select the Custom Field(s) you wish to add to the list.
  4. Click on the checkmark icon to Apply Column Filter.

Once the Custom Field Column filter has been applied, the custom column will appear on the table.

  1. Search for the value you wish to find.
  2. The results will be shown in the table.

  Please note: You can only do a search on Custom Fields if these have been added to the Event List. If the Custom Field Column is not present the search will give no result.
