Scroll down and locate the section called "Custom Lists for Predefined Select Attributes".
You’ll see a list of all predefined attributes that use dropdown menus.
Click "Edit" on the attribute you want to customize. In this pop-up you can se all the options, delete options and add new options. If the attribute has more dropdowns, then change the list in the top.
For each option there is two key fields:
"Option" – the display name shown in the platform.
"JSON Name" – the technical name used for Excel import/export and API integrations. Tip: Keep JSON names short and consistent (no spaces, no underscores).
