I. Intro
Who can perform these steps: Primary administrators or administrators with "Field Management" permission.
After configuring member information fields, the administrators can allow members to search for people using these custom fields.
Example:
As an administrator, you can allow members to search by phone number or email in the search bar of the Lark app. You can also allow members to narrow the search results to individuals within the IT Department by configuring the Contact filters in the search window.
Note:
It's possible to allow members to search fields that won't display on profile pages. We suggest displaying the fields on the profile page before you set them as searchable to avoid privacy concerns or information leakage.
