`settings` is a mandatory argument for any field. The value entered here will be used to store the settings in the database.
If for example you create a field using something like this:
```php
Kirki::add_field( 'global', array(
'type' => 'color',
'settings' => 'body_background_color',
'label' => esc_attr__( 'This is the label', 'my_textdomain' ),
'section' => 'my_section',
'default' => '#0088CC',
'priority' => 10,
) );
```
then in your theme you can access that value using:
```php
<?php $color = get_theme_mod( 'body_background_color', '#0088CC' ); ?>
```
