Properties from Thing
| Property | Expected Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| additionalType | Text, URL | An additional type for the item, typically used for adding more specific types from external vocabularies in microdata syntax. This is a relationship between something and a class that the thing is in. Typically the value is a URI-identified RDF class, and in this case corresponds to the use of rdf:type in RDF. Text values can be used sparingly, for cases where useful information can be added without their being an appropriate schema to reference. In the case of text values, the class label should follow the schema.org style guide. |
| alternateName | Text | An alias for the item. |
| description | TextObject, Text | A description of the item. |
| disambiguatingDescription | Text | A sub property of description. A short description of the item used to disambiguate from other, similar items. Information from other properties (in particular, name) may be necessary for the description to be useful for disambiguation. |
| identifier | PropertyValue, URL, Text | The identifier property represents any kind of identifier for any kind of Thing, such as ISBNs, GTIN codes, UUIDs etc. Schema.org provides dedicated properties for representing many of these, either as textual strings or as URL (URI) links. See background notes for more details. |
| image | ImageObject, URL | An image of the item. This can be a URL or a fully described ImageObject. |
| mainEntityOfPage | URL, CreativeWork | Indicates a page (or other CreativeWork) for which this thing is the main entity being described. See background notes for details. |
| name | Text | The name of the item. |
| potentialAction | Action | Indicates a potential Action, which describes an idealized action in which this thing would play an 'object' role. |
| sameAs | URL | URL of a reference Web page that unambiguously indicates the item's identity. E.g. the URL of the item's Wikipedia page, Wikidata entry, or official website. |
| subjectOf | CreativeWork, Event | A CreativeWork or Event about this Thing. |
| url | URL | URL of the item. |
Instances of StructuredValue may appear as a value for the following properties
| Property | On Types | Description |
|---|---|---|
| pronouns | Person | A short string listing or describing pronouns for a person. Typically the person concerned is the best authority as pronouns are a critical part of personal identity and expression. Publishers and consumers of this information are reminded to treat this data responsibly, take country-specific laws related to gender expression into account, and be wary of out-of-date data and drawing unwarranted inferences about the person being described. In English, formulations such as "they/them", "she/her", and "he/him" are commonly used online and can also be used here. We do not intend to enumerate all possible micro-syntaxes in all languages. More structured and well-defined external values for pronouns can be referenced using the StructuredValue or DefinedTerm values. |
| typicalCreditsPerTerm | EducationalOccupationalProgram | The number of credits or units a full-time student would be expected to take in 1 term however 'term' is defined by the institution. |
| value | MonetaryAmount, PropertyValue, QuantitativeValue | The value of a QuantitativeValue (including Observation) or property value node. * For QuantitativeValue and MonetaryAmount, the recommended type for values is 'Number'. * For PropertyValue, it can be 'Text', 'Number', 'Boolean', or 'StructuredValue'. * Use values from 0123456789 (Unicode 'DIGIT ZERO' (U+0030) to 'DIGIT NINE' (U+0039)) rather than superficially similar Unicode symbols. * Use '.' (Unicode 'FULL STOP' (U+002E)) rather than ',' to indicate a decimal point. Avoid using these symbols as a readability separator. |
| valueReference | PropertyValue, QuantitativeValue, QualitativeValue | A secondary value that provides additional information on the original value, e.g. a reference temperature or a type of measurement. |
