Can I change a custom field from Integer Number to Decimal without losing data already in that field?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

Based on the conversations, it appears that changing a custom field from an Integer Number to Decimal does not erase the data already in that field. This was confirmed by a user who performed a test and found that the value was retained after the field type was changed. However, it's important to note that this might not be the case for all field type changes. For instance, changing a field from a free-form text to a list/dropdown field type might erase the value in that field for all items. Therefore, it's always a good idea to perform a test before making such changes to ensure that no data is lost. Also, if you're dealing with a custom field in a bundle and want to change its type without losing data, you might consider using a bundle installation script. This script could copy the data, change the field type, and then repopulate the data. However, this approach might require some scripting knowledge and thorough testing to ensure it works as expected. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
