#' Custom Fields Filter Functions
#'
#' Functions to work with Sensor Tower custom fields filters.

#' @name st_custom_fields

#' Create a Custom Fields Filter
#'
#' Creates a custom fields filter ID by posting filter criteria to Sensor Tower.
#' This filter ID can then be used with other endpoints to query filtered data.
#'
#' @param custom_fields List. A list of custom field criteria with the following structure:
#'   - exclude: Logical. Whether to exclude apps matching this criteria
#'   - global: Logical. Whether this is a global field (TRUE) or organization field (FALSE)
#'   - name: Character. The name of the custom field (e.g., "Free", "Release Date (US)")
#'   - values: Character vector. Values to filter by (can be empty)
#'   - true: Logical. For boolean fields, the value to match
#' @param auth_token Optional. Character string. Your Sensor Tower API token.
#' @param base_url Optional. Character string. The base URL for the API.
#'
#' @return Character string containing the custom fields filter ID
