The values added to these fields will be saved alongside other contact information, such as their URN and the contact's creation date.\n\nRegardless of the flow your contact is in, you can access these fields using the variable `@fields.field_name` or `@contact.fields.field_name`\n\n![](https://cdn.statically.io/gh/vtexdocs/help-center-content/refs/heads/main/docs/en/tutorials/weni-by-vtex/studio/contact-fields_1.png)\n\nBoth variables mentioned above can point to the same contact field.\n\n## How to create a field\n\nTo access this information, go to your project and click on the \"\"**Studio**\"\" module in the left sidebar. Then, click on \"\"**Contacts**\"\" and \"\"\\*\\*Manage Field\n\ns\\*\\*\"\".\n\n![](https://cdn.statically.io/gh/vtexdocs/help-center-content/refs/heads/main/docs/en/tutorials/weni-by-vtex/studio/contact-fields_2.png)\n\nYou will be directed to the contact fields management page, where you will find: all existing fields within your project, their written form as a variable, the type of value accepted, and how many times they have been used. To create a new field, simply click on \"\"Create Field.\"\"\n\n![](https://cdn.statically.io/gh/vtexdocs/help-center-content/refs/heads/main/docs/en/tutorials/weni-by-vtex/studio/contact-fields_3.png)\n\nAfter that, simply:\n\n- Choose the label for your contact field by filling in the **Name** field\n\n- Select the type of value the field can store in the **Data Type** selection.
