Yes! If the allowCustom option is set to true, users have the ability to add custom fields that are not defined in the data template. All custom fields are stored under the `$custom` object as a key-value pair. If you have a custom field called `ip_address`, for example, the `$custom` object might look something like this:

[
   {
        "id": "12",
        "name": "Taylor",
        "failure-note": "Avon",
        "$custom": {
            "ip_address": "192.452.243.214"
       },
        "sign": "Ooze",
        "shield-color": "Red"
   }
]
