Please expand the data types available in custom fields. Common secrets people want to protect include the following which would be solvable by having a custom field data type that accepts a file attachment and stores in the DB as an encrypted blob. All of these field types would be addressed by allowing a custom field to be a blob/binary DB storage type. For performance/ease of implementation, I would recommend ~1MB size cap for this type of data, especially since customers can choose to zip/7z/rar/etc before uploading it.

  1. Configuration file backups that include passwords and other sensitive data
  2. Public/Private key pairs
  3. License files for software
  4. File-based encryption settings for app configurations
  5. API tokens/Azure service principal keys


The SSH Keys template seems to have the ability to upload files, tho I would like to see an option to have it kept as a file rather than turned into data in a text field after upload. There are numerous storage formants for sensitive data, and not all of them are text (like a base-64 key pair is), so being able to truly upload a file for secure storage would be ideal.

Hello, could using attachments on an entry be a solution for your use case?

Attachments can be added directly to an entry, and the maximum size is 25 MB per attachment. This might allow you to securely store the types of files you mentioned without requiring a new custom field data type.

Let us know if this would work for your scenario.

Are attachments stored encrypted? Also, is the "Document" entry template stored encrypted?

Hi, yes they are both encrypted.
