Summary

Create a JobTread custom field for the selected record type. The operation returns the existing field when a field with the same name already exists, avoiding a duplicate.

Inputs

  • Name (required) — Name of the custom field to create.
  • Target Type (required) — Record type that will receive the field: Job, Customer Account, Vendor Account, Customer Contact, Vendor Contact, Task, Document, Daily Log, or Location.
  • Field Type (required) — Value type for the field: Text, Date, Date & Time, or Checkbox (Boolean). Picklist fields are not supported by this operation; create them in JobTread settings.

Output shape

A list containing one custom field record, suitable for downstream iteration.

If a field with the same name already exists, the existing record is returned instead of creating another.
