What are Fields?

Fields are the basic building block of pages in Carbon Editor.

Each type of Field contains one type of content - text, image, table, list, or formula. 

The following Field types are created for each Space by default:

• Paragraph
• Heading
• Image
• List
• Table
• Formula

In addition to the standard default Fields, Space Admin users can configure additional Field Types.

For more information, see Space Administration - Field Types.

For information on editing different Field types in the Page Editor, see Editing Content.
