We're trying to serve specific home page elements to a subset of our customers. The ZD Organization field that defines the subset is a custom field. The script works with a native Org field (e.g., Tags), but not a custom field. Can someone confirm that using custom Org fields isn't supported? And if true, anyone have a workaround?

Custom organization fields in Zendesk are not directly supported for targeting homepage elements or frontend scripting, which is why your script works with native fields like Tags but not with custom fields. As a workaround, you can use automation or triggers to sync custom field values into organization tags, which are fully accessible for scripting. Alternatively, you can build a custom Zendesk app to fetch and use custom field data via the API or consider using user profile custom fields if applicable. Let us know if you need assistance with these options.
