Properties (Company Settings)
Properties are customizable metadata fields that let you organize content and users beyond the standard options.
Jump to:
Managing Properties
To add a new property:
- Click the + button
- Enter the property's plural and singular name (used for search)
- Optionally, check Add property when new Content Type is defined to automatically include this property when a new Content Type is created
To add values to a property:
- Click the three horizontal bars next to the property
- Add your values
To edit or delete a property:
- Click the pencil icon on the property row to edit or delete the property
- Click the three horizontal bars to edit the property's values
Note: Some properties are system-generated and cannot be edited or deleted.
Properties for Content
Properties may look similar to Categories and Labels, but they work differently:
- Categories & Labels — You select from all available Categories and Labels across your portal
- Properties — You select from a specific dropdown of options defined for that property
- Targeted — Properties can be added only to relevant content types (e.g. a "Language" Property applied only to Content Types that support multilingual content)
- Required — Properties can be set as required when adding or editing content
This video shows how to add, edit, delete, and assign Properties to a Content Type:
Properties for Business Roles
Business roles are a type of property used on user profiles. They help you organize users by department — e.g. Marketing, Sales, Customer Success. Business roles can be used to sort users, create access groups, and filter reporting in Insights (such as viewing which Sales users have logged into Enablix).
