}Custom fields
Delete custom field
Removes a custom field from the API: it disappears from the list, its values are no longer returned on people, and writing to it with custom_attributes returns CUSTOM_ATTRIBUTE_KEY_UNKNOWN. The stored values are kept, and creating a field with the same label and type restores it with them. Built-in fields and fields synced from a CRM integration cannot be deleted.
