I have a property that needs to be updated from a Radio Select to a Single Line Text. It is used ONLY in a page view, which means it is shown on the sidebar of a record. It does not have any records that have a value. The ONLY thing preventing me from updating it is that it is being used in a sidebar. Now, I have to open the record customization page, remove the property, return to property settings, update the property, return to the record customization page, find the property, re-add the property and THEN save. I don't think that is efficient or makes sense. Obviously if the property held data of one type, it wouldn't be able to easily convert to another. Annoying as it is, I understand that. This property however, holds absolutely no data and there is no reason that it couldn't be updated from a radio select to a single line text on the page's sidebar without the need for a bunch of additional steps and changing pages. One step, or multiple steps that involve leaving the page. I choose one step, please. It is a small gripe, but I have complaints like this almost daily regarding things that slow me down. Most HubSpot users may encounter this once and think to themselves "that's annoying," but move on and never do it again. In my case, I am sometimes doing the same action 100+ times for all of the locations we have that use HubSpot. That means that I'm not just doing 4 extra steps, but might be doing 400 extra steps overall. I'm sure you can understand the massive difference in work and time spent between taking 400 steps to do something or 100 steps to do something. TLDR: If a property is used in an asset, but has no data, there is nothing that should prevent the ability to change the property's type. Use case: I set up a property as the wrong type by mistake, and created a sidebar using the property. I now need to update the property type, but can't do so without first removing it from the side bar it is displayed in, creating the need to update the sidebar twice and adding unnecessary steps to the task process.
