The Custom Data tab in the Manage section of Backpack displays the account tags associated with an account. This data encompasses the information from each polling source linked to the account. Custom data is grouped by account tags within Blueprints, containing information unique to each account such as address, geo-targeting data, inventory data, and other unique account information.

Types of Custom Data
Custom data is divided into two types:
Polling Sources: The data is pulled from an account's dynamic data feed and is labeled as read-only. You can view this data to understand the contents of a tag, but any changes must be made at the source.
Static Data: This type of data remains constant over time or changes infrequently. You can create custom data by using account tags from an ingestion sheet, the tags pane in Blueprints, or manually in Manage.
