Navigate to Custom Fields: In the left sidebar, go to Organization and select the Custom Fields tab.
Select the Model: Identify which area requires the custom field (Products, Orders, or Ship Advice).
Example: To add a field for products, click the Edit button next to the Product model.
Add a New Field: Click the + Add Field button located at the top right of the page.
Configure Field Details:
Name: Enter the desired attribute name.
Note: Use lowercase letters only and replace spaces with underscores (e.g.,
material_typeorbatteries_included). This name should generally match the unmapped marketplace category attribute found in your posting templates.
Validation Type: Select the data format.
Use
single_line_text_fieldfor most general attributes.Select specific options (dates, measurements, true/false) only if you need to restrict the values allowed in this field.
Description: (Optional) Enter a brief description to help your team understand the field's purpose.
Save: Click + Add to save your new custom field.
How to Add Custom Fields in Bulk
If you need to create multiple fields at once, you can use the bulk tool to save time.
Navigate to the Custom Fields page and click Edit next to the relevant model (e.g., Product).
Click the + Add Bulk button.
Enter your field names in the text box. You can either:
Paste a comma-separated list (e.g.,
attribute_1, attribute_2, attribute_3).Type them manually, pressing Enter after each name.
Select the Validation Type (this will apply to all attributes in the list).
Click + Add to finish.
Next Steps
Once created, your new custom fields will be available immediately. You can populate them when importing or creating products, and select them as mappings inside your product posting templates.
