# Step 3: Add a Webhook to setup Custom Property

Create a new webhook that will follow the previous one 

- **Name**: Set Custom Property
- **Method **PUT
- **URL**:_[https://rmcloud-prd.releasemanagement.app/api/1/board/<ADD_YOUR_BAORD_ID_HERE>/version/{{entity.id}}/customField](https://rmcloud-prd.releasemanagement.app/api/1/board/%3CADD_YOUR_BAORD_ID_HERE%3E/version/%7B%7Bentity.id%7D%7D/customField)
- **Body**: `{"<ADD_YOUR_PROPERTY_HERE>":"{{date.now(0,'yyyy-MM-dd','GMT+0')}}"}`

Open Headers and add header

> ***X-RM-Token:**** <personal_token_body>*

> ⚠️ At the same time, the Authorization header should be removed from the request if used.
