How do I view and manage user defined fields for catalog registration?

As a Catalog admin, you can view and manage user defined fields in your catalogs and subcatalogs. User defined fields allow you to customize the information you gather during new user registration in addition to the default fields of Full Name and Email.

Learn more about adding user defined fields to your catalogs and subcatalogs.

You can export user defined fields using the Catalog API.

Notes:

  • By default, user defined fields created in a parent catalog are applied to all subcatalogs. Custom user defined fields can be added to a subcatalog when the default setting is disabled.
  • Information in user defined fields can only be collected as part of new user registrations; the fields do not display when existing users enroll in a course.
