Attributes

Attributes are building blocks of data, capturing structured information about objects in your marketplace. Each attribute specifies the type of data it accepts and whether providing this data is mandatory. For example, you might have a dropdown attribute for material, with the options of wool, cotton, or acrylic.

Attributes are important for both the sellers and buyers on your marketplace. They allow sellers to capture and present characteristics about their products, while enabling buyers to filter and browse products more efficiently.
