What is a Custom UDF, how can I create one, and how can I add it to my Registration Page in Studio Webcasting?

UDF stands for User Defined Field (aka Custom User Field). UDFs are Tenant-specific and used in registration to gather additional data from registrants. UDFs can be added in Studio Webcasting under the Tools Menu > Custom User Fields.

 

Follow the steps below to create a Custom UDF and to add it to your Registration Page:

 

Create a Custom UDF

Step 1:

Click the blue plus button in the upper right-hand corner to create a new UDF.

 

Step 2:

Within the Create Custom User Field menu, you can enter the Description for internal reference.

 

The Grouping will remain User Fields.

 

You may select a Data Type to indicate what validation will be applied to the field:

String: A string of text

Number: Number validation

Integer: An integer validation (This validation applies to the “Text Area” Entry Type only.)

Date: A date validation

Logical: A true or false validation using a checkbox field

 

Entry type options will vary depending on which Data Type is selected.

 

For example, if you would like to create an opt-in checkbox option, you would select the Data Type “Logical” then select the “Checkbox” Entry Type.
