Invitee questions - Event custom fields

Learn all about how to create and manage Invitee questions from Tracking menu

Updated over 2 weeks ago

The Invitee questions (also known as Event custom fields) are the questions that will be displayed on your scheduler form, for your leads to answer before they are able to schedule a call.

Custom Invitee questions are actually secondary questions on your form, that you can customize, and that will appear only once the lead fills out the primary questions, such as phone number or email and name.

Business and Enterprise subscription plan users will have additional menu for storing and tracking of all Invitee questions as Event custom fields in Tracking menu.

This additional menu provides you the full overview of all created invitee questions, that will help you to avoid creating duplicates, and as end result, keep your stats accurate.


Invitee Questions Fields overview


Unlike other object tabs that show system and custom fields together, this tab focuses exclusively on the questions your prospects answer when booking appointments.

Each invitee question displays additional context through the columns, such as:

  • "Used In"

    • shows which specific events currently include that question.

  • Type

    • displays the field format (Short text, Single Select, Multiple Select, etc.).

  • Identifier

    • unique keyword used for integrations, pre-population, and API connections (e.g., {{call.fieldname}}).

  • Created at

    • The date when the custom field was originally created.

  • Use count

    • Shows how many times the field has been populated with data across all records.

This visibility helps you understand field dependencies before making changes and lets you edit questions that are actively collecting lead data. You can also edit or merge existing questions and update their field type, name or identifier.

Important Notes

Tracking → Custom fields is accessible to Super Admin and Sales Manager roles by default.

Also, kindly note that there's no "delete custom field" option, since it's important to keep all of your historical data intact. Merging duplicates solves all potentially duplicated entries, while keeping all data in place.


Available field formats
