# Make Custom Fields Visible

When a custom field is created, it’s not visible by default to all profiles in the Salesforce organization. Users with different roles won’t be able to see the newly created custom field.

You need to modify the Field-Level Security settings after the custom field is created to allow other Salesforce profiles to see it. Stacksync enables Custom Field Visibility for the following profiles:

* System Administrator
* Standard User
