1. For **Custom ID**, you can enter a custom ID for the customer. Setting a custom ID allows you to easily tie this Replicated customer record to your own internal customer data systems during data exports. We suggest setting an alphanumeric value such as your Salesforce ID, Hubspot ID, etc for that customer. Replicated does not require the custom ID to be unique. The custom ID is for vendor data reconciliation purposes, and is not used by Replicated for any functionality purposes.
