⏱️ The Essentials in 3 Minutes |
🧠 Understand the Value of Custom Fields
Knowing your learners well means supporting them better. Custom fields let you link each learner to their professional context (employee ID, business unit, site, country...) directly in Didask - no parallel Excel spreadsheet or HR database to reconcile.
This data enriches your analyses, makes cohort segmentation easier, and feeds your internal tools via the API.
📌 Example: an international organization with 3 business units. You add a Business Unit field (dropdown) and a Country field to the registration form. On export, you filter statistics by BU to compare completion rates, and you send the data to your HRIS via the API.
📋 Identify the Available Fields
Default fields (already present on all accounts):
Last name
First name
Email address
Employer name
Custom fields you can add:
Employee ID
Business unit
Country
Site
Internal identifier
Any other data useful to your organization
🎨 Configure a Custom Field
Each custom field can be configured to suit your needs.
Setting | Options |
Field type | Free text or dropdown (with predefined values). |
Required | Mandatory at registration, or optional. |
Editing | Accessible and editable at any time from the user profile. |
💡 Use dropdowns for fields that need to stay standardized (BU, country, site...). This ensures clean exports and easy filtering.
💻 Access Your Data Across the Platform
Once filled in, your custom data is available:
On the user profile: viewable and editable at any time.
In XLSX exports: automatically included in the main exports (learner activity, progress, course progress).
Via the public API: for your external integrations (HRIS, BI, data lake).
💡 No more manual reprocessing - you get all your enriched data in a single export.
