How do I view and manage user defined fields for my catalogs?
As a Catalog admin, you can view and manage user defined fields in your catalogs and subcatalogs. User defined fields allow you to customize the information you gather during new user registration in addition to the default fields of Full Name and Email.

You can export user defined fields using the Catalog API.
Notes:
- By default, user defined fields created in a parent catalog are applied to all subcatalogs. Custom user defined fields can be added to a subcatalog when the default setting is disabled.
- By default, information in user defined fields is only collected during new user registrations. To allow user defined fields to display when existing users enroll in a course, you can enable user defined fields for all enrollments.
