Attributes

Attributes are the individual pieces of information that make up each template. They provide the granular detail and context for your data — think of them as the essential ingredients in a recipe, where each attribute contributes a unique flavor to the final data.

What Are Attributes?

Attributes capture the specific characteristics, qualities, or properties of the entities you’re defining within a template. They are the building blocks that:

• Define the specific details that distinguish one entity from another
• Capture unique features and characteristics of your data
• Contribute to the overall structure and clarity of your templates

Creating an Attribute

To create a new attribute:

1. Navigate to the Attributes page from the bottom navigation bar
2. Click the + New Attribute button
3. Fill in the attribute details:
   • Name — A descriptive name (e.g., “Price”, “Email”, “Category”)
   • Data Type — The kind of data this attribute holds
   • Attribute Type — Whether it’s a Dimension, Metric, List, or Reference

Data Types

Choose the data type that best fits the information you want to capture:

You can add an attribute to multiple templates. For example, a “Name” attribute can be used in both a “Customer” template and a “Company” template. :::

Tip

When you add a new attribute to an existing template, all entities already created from that template automatically get space for the new information (initially empty).
