| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Name |
The unique internal name of the field. Supports alphanumeric characters and underscores, but no spaces or special characters. If you’re importing records into a content list, the field name in the XML file must match this name. If you update the name of a category field, it doesn’t change the category’s name in the Categories view on the Overview tab. |
| Default Value |
Sets the field’s default value, which is automatically entered when the user creates a new record, unless the user overwrites the value. If you update an existing field’s default value, existing records are not updated. |
| Hidden Field | When selected, hides the field when the user is editing a record. For example, you may want to set the default value for a field that you don’t want users to see or edit. |
| Label | The external name of the field. This is displayed as the column heading in the content list. |
| Read Only | When selected, disables the field so that the user can’t modify it when editing a record. For example, you may want to set a default value for a field that you don’t want users to edit, but that you so want them to see. |
| Required | When selected, makes the field mandatory, so the user can’t submit a record without entering a value. |
| Unique Value | When selected, requires the value of the field to be unique for each record. |
| Picklist Values |
Applies to Picklist and Multi-select Picklist fields only. Sets the list of items to display in the picklist. Each picklist item consists of a Label and a Value field. The Label field is displayed in the picklist, whereas the Value field is the internal value used by the content list. In most situations, you can use the same value in both fields, unless you want to submit a different value than the one displayed to the user. Click |
| Allow Multiple Values | Applies to Category fields only. When selected, allows the user select more than one category term when editing a record. |
