Base entity fields

The following base fields are used for all entities.

Attribute	Type	Description	Examples
`id`	smartscapeId	stable Display name: `ID` A Smartscape ID consists of two components: an UPPER_CASE entity type and a random 16-character hexadecimal unique identifier, separated by a dash. Use Smartscape conversion functions when working with strings that represent Smartscape IDs.	`<type>-017198AD253CBD63`
`id_classic`	string	deprecated Display name: `Classic ID` The entity ID that was used in the classic entity store. This ID is present in old monitoring data. Not all entities have this ID, and it is not generated for new entities. Use the `id` field instead, which is the Smartscape ID.	`<type>-017198AD253CBD63`
`name`	string	stable Display name: `Name` The entity name.	`localhost`; `easyTravel`; `product-catalog`
`type`	string	stable Display name: `Type` The entity type. UPPER_SNAKE_CASE string that represents the type of the entity. Tags: `permission`	`TYPE_A`
`tags`	record	stable Display name: `Tags` A consolidated record that aggregates all tag values originating from different contexts. Each nested field within tags represents a specific key (for example, `release` or `name`). The value of each nested field is the tag value from one or multiple contexts. Tags for specific context can be queried via `tags:context` field. Note that rule-based tags do not exist in the new model.	`tags[tag_key-1] = [context_A_tag_val-1, context_B_tag_val-1]`; `tags[tag_key-2] = context_C_tag_val-1`; `tags:context_A[tag_key-1] = context_A_tag_val-1`
`lifetime`	timeframe	stable Display name: `Lifetime` The lifetime of the entity. This is a record with two nested fields: `start` and `end`, which represent the time when the entity was first and last observed, respectively. Each time an entity is updated, the end time is updated to the current time.	`{ start: 2022-07-06T13:36:00.808Z, end: 2024-04-11T06:56:01.204Z }`
`references`	record	stable Display name: `References` Provides access to static edges pointing to other entities. In this record each nested field represents a relationship type and target type, and the value is an array of target Smartscape IDs. This field is hidden by default but can be added using the fieldsAdd command.	`{ references[runs_on.host] : [HOST-C251A1173C2B4B39,HOST-0E9038C7C4409D69], references[runs_on.container] : [CONTAINER-68A08967EF4F675B] }`
`dt.security_context`	string[]	resource stable Display name: `DT security context` The security contexts associated with the entity. For Smartscape entities, this field is always an array. Tags: `permission`	`[]`

Business Flow fields

Attribute	Type	Description	Examples
`bizflow.id`	string	experimental Display name: `Business flow ID` Internal ID from the business flow configured in the Business Flow app.
`bizflow.priority`	string	experimental Display name: `Business flow priority` The priority of a business process.	`critical`; `high`; `medium`; `low`
`bizflow.url`	string	experimental Display name: `Business flow URL` URL to explore the business flow in the Business Flow app from a result in a DQL query against Smartscape nodes.
