Custom Field → Update
AI-generatedSummary
Updates a specific GoHighLevel custom field's metadata (name, placeholder, position, picklist options) on a selected location.
Inputs
- locationId (required) — The sub-account/location to operate on. Loaded from your agency credential.
- customFieldId (required) — The ID of the custom field to update.
- updateFields — A collection of fields to update. Supports Name, Placeholder, Position, and Picklist options (comma-separated or JSON array).
Output shape
A single record representing the updated custom field configuration.
The operation uses the newer v2 update endpoint which expects plain string arrays for picklist options, replacing the previous comma-separated format. The entire existing option list is replaced when sending picklist updates (no merging).
Examples
Example 1: Update the name and position of a picklist field.
Set locationId, customFieldId, and add 'name' and 'position' to updateFields.
Example 2: Replace the entire list of picklist options for a radio field.
Set locationId, customFieldId, and add 'picklistOptionsJson' with a full JSON array of options.
