Where
Points then Columns then Custom columns
Store project-specific details such as Stage, Aspect or Unit type.
Steps
- Open Columns and enter a unique name under Custom columns.
- Choose Add column and enter values in the new text column.
- Use Rename to change its label without creating a different field.
- Map it to a Google Sheets column if required, using Google Sheets connection.
- To permanently remove it, choose Delete and then Delete column and values after reviewing the warning.
Expected result
The project has a labelled text field with a stable internal identity. Non-empty custom values can appear on public popup cards.
Tips and limits
Up to 40 custom columns are supported. Numbers and dates are stored as text, not typed numerical filters. Delete removes the field, every point value, the sheet mapping and the public-card field; the source Google Sheet is unchanged. Hiding is the reversible alternative.
Effect on the published viewer
Add or rename the column definition and publish to update public labels. Existing field values are live. Confirmed deletion also removes the field from the published layout immediately.
