**Summary**: How to update custom group properties.

[Groups](docId\:A1xW1jlEhGBgNXYQh8q8E) can have up to five custom properties. This article describes how to update custom group property values and how to rename the properties within Client Settings.

When you add custom properties to a group, you can filter on specific property values and view custom group properties in the Group Detail pane.

To edit custom group properties, you must have the IAM privilege **Group Control**.

Select the group or groups to edit and select **Edit Group > Custom Group Properties**. Note that if you select the Default Group, this option will be disabled.

Select which properties you want to edit. For each property that you add, you will see a new text box.

When you have entered the new values, click **Submit**. If you are updating the custom group properties of more than one group at a time, you must confirm by typing **I understand** first.

## Changing Default Property Names

:::hint{type="info"}
To edit the names of custom group properties, you must have the IAM privilege **Client Settings Control**.
:::

You can change the default names of each custom group property within Client Settings.

Go to **Configuration (**:inlineImage[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/9rfvxhrv8FA-8bxcK2IRv/nNbQyA_cMpuwaBOoCx9_w_reporting-a-bug.png" alt="Settings Menu - Gear - Small" caption size="10" width="20" height="20"}**) > Client Settings**.

In Client Settings, go to the **Custom Group Properties** section to change the names of custom group properties across the client.

::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/9rfvxhrv8FA-8bxcK2IRv/DnqVBPvH6yNeZjMqGvkch_editing-custom-group-properties4.png" alt="Custom Group Properties - Custom Group Properties" position="flex-start" size="97" width="679" height="317" initialPath="Resources/Images/RS KB Mirror for Ivanti - 2022/Editing Custom Group Properties_4.png" githubPath="RBVM_14.70_help/Resources/Images/RS KB Mirror for Ivanti - 2022/Editing Custom Group Properties_4.png" showCaption="false"}

After you save the new names, the names will appear in the Group Detail for each group. The default names for custom group properties (“Custom Group Property 1”, “Custom Group Property 2”, etc.) will continue to appear in other parts of the platform and the exports.
