Custom attributes in DigitBridge allow you to add additional data fields to products, customers, orders, and other records—without requiring development work. They give you the flexibility to capture and display exactly the kind of information your business needs to track. Whether you need to assign internal tags, track regional ownership, note fulfillment preferences, or store legacy IDs, custom attributes help you adapt DigitBridge to your operations.  --- ### Types of custom attributes Custom attributes can be created for: - **Products** – Add fields like “Season,” “Custom Category,” or “Internal Tag.” - **Customers** – Track designations like “VIP,” “Region,” or “Assigned CS Rep.” - **Sales Orders** – Include fields such as “Urgency Level,” “Source Event,” or “Special Handling.” ***Note:** Not all custom attributes will appear in reports or sync externally unless configured to do so.* --- ### Field types available When creating custom attributes, you can choose from several input types: - **Text** – For free-form input - **Number** – Allow numeric input only - **Select** – Choose from a defined list of values - **Boolean** – For simple Yes/No toggles Check out [How can I create custom attributes?](https://support.digitbridge.com/digitbridgeclientknowledgebase/how-can-i-create-custom-attributes?hsLang=en) for more. --- ***Tip:** Use dropdowns instead of text fields when possible to standardize your data.*   -
