Certainly 🙂

Each time you do any action in Discourse, you can check the network tab of your browser dev tools to see the query that was made.

For example, here I save the profile of a user:

The custom fields are listed as `user_fields[X]` where X is the number of the custom field.

I did this by following the steps in [Reverse engineer the Discourse API](https://meta.discourse.org/t/reverse-engineer-the-discourse-api/20576), I edited a test user and made a note of what was occurring in the network tab of the browser. I can see that I need to PUT to this url: https://example.com/u/my-username-here.json Where I got a bit confused was by not seeing a json payload but instead it’s some formdata. The payload was: user\_fields%5B1%5D=some+dji%2C+some+Autel&user\_fields%5B5…
