    Create a local subfield

    A local subfield is any field that is not a part of the MARC bib/authority standard as defined by the Library of Congress.

    1. To create a local subfield field, use the POST /specification-storage/fields/{fieldId}/subfields

    2. The POST body must include at minimum: code and label.

    Update a subfield

    1. From the GET /specification-storage/specifications/{MARC bib/authority record validation specification id}?include=all, copy the following values in that response for the subfield code you want to update: subfield id, code, repeatable, required

    2. To update the field tag, use PUT /specification-storage/subfields/{subfieldId} and the body should include at minimum these values: code and label.

    Delete a subfield code

    1. From the GET /specification-storage/specifications/{MARC bib/authority record validation specification id}?include=all, copy the subfield id

    2. Use endpoint DELETE /specification-storage/subfields/{subfieldId}
