# Custom Schema

Available in Classic and VPC

You can create and manage Custom Schemas using the Custom Schema service.

You can create Custom Schemas and send them to the Custom Schema service through the Cloud Insight API. The data collected can be utilized in Cloud Insight and can also be queried via API. For data transfer and retrieval APIs, see the [Cloud Insight API guide](https://api.ncloud-docs.com/docs/en/management-cloudinsight).

To access **Custom Schema**, access the NAVER Cloud Platform portal and navigate to **[Console]** > **Menu** > **All Services** > **Management & Governance** > **Cloud Insight** > **Configuration** > **Custom Schema**.
