Custom Data Attribute Can Not Be Updated Through UI?

I did not find it in the documentation, but it seems that we can not add values to our custom attributes in UI Admin?

I tested it with Intercom 2.3:

  • create a custom attribute using https://api.intercom.io/data_attributes/li>
  • I had ui_writable property set to true in my request. I also tried to modify the attribute by sending "update request" with ui_writable = true
  • still in the UI I can not assign any value to the new attribute.

 

Could you please help with that? Is it a limitation of custom attributes? Can they be edited in UI?

Sorry, my bad. I expected this to be edited in the section with user details where it was not editable, instead I could edit it in Qualification section.

Just checked the status of the property, now it has ui_writable=true... but was false at the beginning...

Ok, all good from my side. Thanks.

Yep. To edit attributes they’ll need to be in your Qualification data.

 

It’s sometimes a bit confusing.
