+### Memory types & extraction {#memory-types-and-extraction}
+
+The **Memory types & extraction** section allows you to define custom long-term memory types with structured fields and an optional extraction strategy. Each enabled type runs independently.
+
+{{<image filename="images/rc/agent-memory-memory-types.png" alt="The Memory types & extraction section." >}}
+
+#### Custom memory types
+
+In addition to the built-in memory types, you can define **custom memory types** to capture structured, domain-specific information from your agent's conversations. Each custom type describes a category of information you want to extract, the fields that make up that information, and an optional extraction strategy that tells the extraction pipeline how to populate it.
+
+You can define up to **3 custom memory types**. Once you reach this limit, the **Add type** button is disabled.
+
+To add a custom memory type, select **Add type** and configure the following settings:
+
+| Setting name          |Description|
+|:----------------------|:----------|
+| **Name** | A unique name for the custom memory type. Must start with a letter and contain only letters, numbers, hyphens, or underscores (1–64 characters). The name must be unique within the service and cannot match a built-in memory type (`semantic`, `episodic`, `message`, or `session_summary_view`). |
+| **Description** | A short description of what the memory type represents (1–200 characters). |
+| **Fields** | The structured fields that make up the memory type. See [Fields](#fields) below. |
+
+##### Fields
+
+Each custom memory type can have one or more fields that define its structured attributes. For each field, configure the following:
+
+| Setting name          |Description|
+|:----------------------|:----------|
+| **Name** | The field name. Follows the same rules as the memory type name: must start with a letter and contain only letters, numbers, hyphens, or underscores. |
+| **Type** | The field's data type. Choose from `str`, `int`, `float`, `bool`, `list[str]`, `list[float]`, or `object`. |
+| **Description** | A description of the field (1–200 characters). This description is used to guide extraction, so make it clear and specific. |
+
+##### Extraction strategy
+
+Each custom memory type can have an **extraction strategy** that controls how the extraction pipeline populates it from session messages.
+
+| Setting name          |Description|
+|:----------------------|:----------|
+| **Extraction prompt** | A natural-language prompt (up to 10,000 characters) that instructs the extraction pipeline how to identify and extract this memory type from a conversation. |
+| **Enabled** | Whether the extraction strategy is active. Enabled by default. Disable it to keep the type defined without extracting new memories for it. |
