I am getting an error when creating a new property. I encounter it every time I click the field type drop down menu in the Create a New Property wizard:

I have tried multiple times over the last two days and am still seeing the error. I have tried in an incognito window and in multiple browsers as well.

Hi @DLlort,

Thank you for providing screenshots, checking internally we are unable to reproduce this behavior on the account associated with your email. Are you still getting this error? If so could you please clean your cache following these instructions here?

Hi @DLlort,

Can I have you try to create a property in a different browser, please? If you are able to reproduce it across different browsers, can you let me know which ones produce this error?

Thank you,

Kristen

Hi @DLlort9,

Thanks for letting us know!

Would you be able to please[collect a HAR file](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/Tips-Tricks-Best-Practices/Troubleshooting-Toolkit-Collecting-a-HAR-file/m-p/20103) while attempting to create the property and send it to me via a private message?

Thank you!

Hi, Kristen. I have the HAR file, but I get an error that says the file type isn’t supported when trying to attach it to a private message.

I am getting an error each time I try to create a new property.

 ![DLlort9_0-1652809229288.png](https://d2qpr2jzcazej7.cloudfront.net/original/2X/0/0fa3472b225fede298ada52033e77ed72bf2274d.png)

I have tried clearing cache and cookies and opening HubSpot in an incognito window (in both Chrome and Firefox) and the issue persists. I have even tried deleting and recreating my entire CRM account and it didn’t solve the problem. I start seeing the error as soon as I try to create the fourth custom property on my list.

Hi @DLlort9,

Can you take me through the exact steps you’re taking when attempting to create the dropdown property?

Does the error appear regardless of what values you are putting in?

At what point does the error appear during the property creation process?

If it would be easier, you can also share a Loom video or a screen recording of you trying to create the property.

Thank you!

Best,

Kristen

Definitely. I click Settings from the Contacts tab, then Properties, Create Property, select Contact Information from the Group dropdown, regardless of the label I enter, when I click the Field Type dropdown menu on the next screen, I’m taken immediately to that error.

Hi @DLlort / @DLlort9,

Thanks for your patience!

Can you collect the following files for me, please?

- Try creating a property using Chrome with **all browser extensions disabled** , and then generate a new **HAR file** if possible.
- Collect a [Console Log](https://support.google.com/docs/thread/1873663/collecting-console-logs-chrome-browser-only?hl=en) to show any console errors that are being generated when you try to create a property.

Thanks!

Best,

Kristen
