Hello,
Under "OSR Event Info Component", "6.Click the Select hyperlink next to the Select Event Info Fields label to select the fields for the public-facing users to complete. The Select Content Configuration Fields screen opens." Is there a way to have different UDFs (Opportunity Types) for different Content Builder configurations?
Thanks,
Michelle

Hello Michelle,
You can select whichever UDFs you prefer for each Content Builder configuration. These selections will save individually for that configuration and will not affect any others.
If you are wanting to change which UDFs are available for selection in a Content Builder configuration, that is not currently a functionality within Content Builder and you would need to enter it as a product idea in the Community tab.
Best,

Only a few of our UDFs are populating in the "select event info fields" screen. How do I control the UDFs and fields that are available in OSB?
