How values are stored and named: a lowercase letter, then up to 63 lowercase letters, digits or underscores; not a person attribute's name. It never changes.

labelstringrequired

The name people read, 1 to 100 characters.

optionsstring[] | null

An enum's allowed values: 1 to 100 distinct strings of 1 to 100 characters. Only for enum.

typeFieldTyperequired

The type of a custom field.

The type of a custom field.

Allowed:textnumberbooleanenumdate
updated_atTimestamprequired
versioninteger<int64>required

The field's version, also the response's ETag: updated_at in microseconds since the Unix epoch. An update sent with it in If-Match applies only to this version, so a replacement of options never undoes a change made since it was read.
