Many of the API requests and responses use objects as well as simple types. Objects are a collection of key-value pairs, where the value is a simple type or possibly another object. Attributes are custom name-value pairs that can be set by the user in JSON objects. Some methods enable you to add attributes when creating or modifying objects.

There is a 1000-byte limit on encoded attribute objects.
