UserFields

Create, update, delete, and query User Fields.

Table Specific Information

Select

The following queries are processed server side while other filters are processed client side within the driver.
SELECT * FROM UserFields

SELECT * FROM UserFields WHERE Id = '123'

You can turn off the client-side execution of the query by setting SupportEnhancedSQL to false in which case any other search criteria will be ignored and an unfiltered response will be returned.

Insert

The Type, Title, and Key fields are required to insert. Types of custom fields that can be created are: text (default when no Type is specified), textarea, checkbox, tagger (dropdown), date, integer, decimal, regex. When Type is regex, RegexpForValidation is also required. When Type is tagger, CustomFieldOptions is also required. Allowed for admins.

Understand the following behavior when creating a dropdown field:

  • To create a new option, pass a null Id along with name and value.

        INSERT INTO UserFields(Type, Title, Key) VALUES('text', 'Support description', 'support_description')
    
        INSERT INTO UserFields(Type, Title, Key, RegexpForValidation) VALUES('regexp', 'TestRegExp', 'test_regexp', '\\b([0-9]{4})-(1[0-2]|0?[1-9])-(3[0-1]|[1-2][0-9]|0?[1-9])\\b')
    
        INSERT INTO UserFields(Type, Title, Key, CustomFieldOptions) VALUES('tagger', 'TestDropdown', 'test_dropdown' '[{"id": null, "name": "Option 1", "value": "option_1"}, {"id": null, "name": "Option 2", "value": "option_2"}, {"id": null, "name": "Option 3", "value": "option_3"}]')
        

Update

You must specify the Id of the ticket field to update. All fields that are not readonly (readonly="false" in the table) are optional. Allowed for admins.

Understand the following behavior when updating a dropdown field:

  • To update an existing option, pass its Id along with name and value.
  • All options must be passed on update. Options that are not passed will be removed; as a result, these values will be removed from any users.
  • To reorder an option, reposition it in the CustomFieldOptions array relative to the other options.
  • To remove an option, omit it from the list of options upon update.

UPDATE UserFields SET Title='Support description' WHERE Id='123'

For ticket fields of type tagger (dropdown) use the CustomFieldOptions column to update the options. For type regexp use RegexpForValidation to update the regular expression.

Delete

You must specify the Id of the user field to delete it. Allowed for admins.

DELETE FROM UserFields WHERE Id='123'
