Create custom fields in your tasks

Two ways to add a custom field to your tasks in Wonderly.

Custom fields let you capture information that matters to your business beyond what Wonderly includes by default. You can add fields directly while working in a task, or set them up in advance from Settings.

Method 1: Add a custom field from a task
