* **Name:** e.g.: `Tax ID`.
* **Type:** choose the data type (Text, Number, Date, etc.).
* **Alias:** do not fill it in — the alias is generated automatically **after saving** and cannot be changed.
* **Group:** indicates which group the field will belong to (e.g.: *Main* or *Professional*).
  * You can change the **color and icon** of the group by clicking the icon:&#x20;

* Important settings:
  * **\[Unique identifier?] → Yes**
    * When checked, the value will be **unique** in the system (e.g.: it is not possible to have two companies with the same CNPJ).
  * **\[Required?] → Yes** (optional)
    * When checked, this field **must** be filled in.
* Click on **Save** to create the field.
* After saving: when performing the **spreadsheet mapping** (on the import screen), the new field will already **appear in the selection list** for you to map the corresponding column.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.sprinthub.com/en/topics/general/companies/spreadsheet-import-companies.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
