Get a List of Custom Fields for Contacts crm.contact.userfield.list
If you are developing integrations for Bitrix24 using AI tools (Codex, Claude Code, Cursor), connect to the MCP server so that the assistant can utilize the official REST documentation.
Scope:
crmWho can execute the method: any user with "read" access permission for contacts
The method crm.contact.userfield.list returns a list of custom fields for contacts based on a filter.
It also outputs information about these fields, but without the name assigned to the field by the user, only the internal identifier. If you need the user-defined field name, use the method crm.contact.list, which outputs both standard and custom fields.

Statuses and System Error Codes
HTTP Status: 4xx, 5xx
The errors described below are returned by the REST API itself, not by the logic of a specific method. They can arrive in response to any method.
|
Status |
Code |
Description |
|
|
|
An internal server error has occurred. Retry the call, and if the error persists, contact the server administrator or Bitrix24 technical support |
|
|
|
The server returned an unexpected response. Retry the call, and if the error persists, contact the server administrator or Bitrix24 technical support |
|
|
|
The request intensity limit has been exceeded |
|
|
|
The method is blocked because the request resource intensity limit has been exceeded. The block is lifted automatically once the accumulated execution time of the method no longer exceeds the limit |
|
|
|
The request contains no authorization data: neither an access token nor a webhook code was passed |
|
|
|
Methods are called over the HTTPS protocol only |
|
|
|
The REST API is blocked due to overload. This is a manual individual block. To have it lifted, contact Bitrix24 technical support |
|
|
|
The REST API is available only on commercial plans. A webhook receives a different error message — |
|
|
|
No active webhook with the specified user identifier and secret code was found |
|
|
|
No method with this name was found. The name is misspelled, the method does not exist in the REST API, or it is unavailable without the required scope |
|
|
|
The request requires broader permissions than the token has: for a webhook these are the permissions granted to it, for an application it is the scope. For an application, the error message ends with |
|
|
|
The access token has expired |
|
|
|
The application is installed, but the Bitrix24 administrator has granted access to it only to specific users |
|
