Fields in CSV:

Additional fields line in conf.ini:

additional\_per\_recipient\_fields = {“fields”: [{“path”: “.course","value": "\*|COURSE|\*","csv\_column": "course"},{"path": ".subject”,“value”: “_|SUBJECT|_”,“csv\_column”: “subject”},{“path”: “$.note”,“value”: “_|NOTE|_”,“csv\_column”: “note”}]}

Tecnically, with this, the additional fields should appear inside of the “@context” tag in the template and certificate, but in my case are outside the @context.

I would appreciate any help. Thank you.

Greetings,

I have the same question, how do I add the fields? I don’t understand the explanation very well, is there an better example somewhere?
