📄Data Fields

New Data Fields

Attendee data is uploaded in the system by populating the relevant information into different data fields.

Individual details for each attendee appear as different fields, any combination of which can be displayed on their badge.

The following default fields are available in the Noodle Live Portal: First Name, Last Name, Email Address, Company Name, Job Title, Phone Number and Attendee Type.

Data Fields allow you to add any additional category of attendee information that is not available in the system as a pre-created field.

You can use Data Fields for multiple purposes:

  • To enable more advanced reporting - all newly created custom fields will be available in the data reports downloaded from the system.

  • To share with exhibitors upon lead capture - you can decide what attendee information will be shared with exhibitors upon lead capture and thus, include any additional details in the form of custom fields.

  • To print on badges - you can add any custom field you create to your badge design. As you can also create unlimited badge designs, this allows for complete personalisation of the experience.

  • To assist registration hosts - custom fields can also be made available on the Quick Register search and confirmation pages. For example, this option can help registration staff to identify the correct badge type / colour to hand over to the attendee depending on the custom field data populated.

To create a new Data Field:

1. Navigate to the "Data Fields" section on the left navigation menu

Here you will see the list of all default fields available in the system.

2. Click on the “Add Data Field” button.

3. In the window that pops up, select whether you would like to create a new custom field from scratch or copy it from an existing event.

Note that you can copy custom fields only from events that have been created under the same Event Group. More about Event Groups you can learn here.

4. To create a new field from scratch, click the "Add new data field" button:

  • Enter the name of the field

  • Select whether the data field should be made available to exhibitors upon attendee scan

  • Select whether the data field contains personal information (PII)

  • Click on "Save"

The newly created data field will now be available in the "Data Fields List" table.

You can use the Actions menu to:

Edit a data field and update its title

Duplicate a data field

When you click the copy button, the custom field will be duplicated and the new field's name will contain [1] for the first duplicate, [2] for the second one, and so on.

Delete a data field

When you click on the delete button, a confirmation window will be displayed. If you would like to proceed, click on “YES”.

Export Data

To export a list of all your data fields, click on the “Export Data” tab under the "Quick Actions" menu, which will automatically download a spreadsheet containing the fields.
