How to Add Fields to a Table

This quick-start covers the fastest way to add fields to an existing table. For complete instructions on configuring, reordering, and removing fields, see How to Customize Tables.

Note: You must have Admin permissions to modify tables.

Quick Steps

1. Open the table in the Table Builder: click the Tables drop-down menu and click the pencil icon next to the table you want to modify.
   
    
2. In the Available Fields section on the left, find the field type you want to add. Not sure which type to choose? See the Field Types reference guide.
   
   Drag the field type into the Included Fields section (or simply click it).
   
    
3. Give your new field a name.
   
    
4. Click Save (green button, top right). Your field is now part of the table and will be available in views and forms.

That's it — your field has been added.
