Verified steps

  1. POST to /crm/v3/properties/{objectType} with a body specifying name (internal API identifier), label (display name), type (string, number, date, datetime, bool, enumeration), and fieldType (text, textarea, select, checkbox, radio, date, number, booleancheckbox)
  2. For enumeration properties, include an options array with value, label, and displayOrder fields for each dropdown or radio option
  3. Assign the property to a group by specifying groupName matching an existing property group name for the object type; retrieve valid groups via GET /crm/v3/properties/{objectType}/groups
  4. Verify the created property using GET /crm/v3/properties/{objectType}/{propertyName} and confirm the returned name matches what was specified
  5. Update the property label or options using PATCH /crm/v3/properties/{objectType}/{propertyName} — the name (internal identifier) cannot be changed after creation
  6. Read property values on records via the standard objects API by passing the property name in the properties query parameter
