Hi Ben It's not a custom field, it's the standard JobDesc field on the contact entity.  I have modified my screen, so that this field is displayed, but when I'm doing the integration I can't map the data.  A workaround would be to add my own JobDesc field to the contact table and then map, but I don't want to ...

Hi Rick, Have you added the custom fields to the Contacts table in Method? If not, you would need to do this first to be able to import the relevant data into these fields.  You can do this by navigating to the Customize tab in Method, and clicking on the Tables/Fields tab link.

Hey Mahlon, Appreciate the follow-up. Agreed, those options are unnecessary.

That doesn't work in my situation. See my screenshot
