Custom data
Event Custom data are “local” Event-specific containers created in the Event tool. The data is stored in Profiles. Use Custom data to store event specific data, data you don't want to store for the future as a "life-long" Attribute.
For example, allergies, T-shirt size, food preferences. Custom data are stored on each Profile as Profile events and can be used for segmentation purposes.
In Registration form editor, map form field to either Attribute or Custom data, depending on how you want to store the data.
To remove Event Custom data from Attendees' Profiles, click the X, and click Clear all to remove all Custom data. Removing Custom data can not be undone.
