To create custom fields in the feature vector database, refer to Custom Metadata in Tarantool.

To add custom tabs and fields to the records of individuals, do the following:

Prepare the list of custom tabs and fields you want to add to the records.
Open the /etc/findface-security/config.py configuration file.
```
sudo vi /etc/findface-security/config.py
```

Uncomment the FFSECURITY -> CUSTOM_FIELDS -> human_card section and modify the exemplary content, considering the following:

'items': the list of fields in a record. Describe each field with the following parameters:
- 'name': field’s internal name, string.
- 'default': field’s default value. If a default value exceeds 1e14 - 1 , use a string data type to specify it, for example, "123123.." instead of 123123...
- 'label': field’s label in a record, string.
- 'tab': tab that features the field.
- 'display': display format (form or list), string or array.
- 'description': field’s description, string.
- 'editable': field’s editability, boolean.
- 'type': field data type, string. Possible values:
  - list: requires items, additional parameter for lists (see below), expects objects {id, name} in dictionaries;
  - valuelist: expects elements of primitive types.
  - objectlist: allows for creating arrays of objects of required types.
  - datetime: primitive data type displayed as a datetime list.
  - date: primitive data type displayed as a date picker.
  - boolean: primitive data type displayed as a checkbox.
  - string: primitive data type string.
- additional parameters for lists (type=list, type=valuelist):

  - items: dictionary used as a data source for the list.
  - allow_create: possibility of adding new items to the list.
  - custom_id: custom field for id (type=list).
- additional parameters for object lists (type=objectlist).
  - object: objects used as a data source for the object list.
  - simple: indicator that the field expects data of a primitive type instead of objects, for example, expects strings with phone numbers.
'filters': the list of search filters associated with the custom fields. Parameters:
- 'name': filter’s internal name,
- 'label': filter’s label in the web interface,
- 'field': associated field in the format [field name].
