A string map of event-specific data that you might choose to record. For example, if a user rates a movie on your site, other than movie ID (
itemId
) and rating (eventValue
) , you might also send the number of movie ratings made by the user.Each item in the map consists of a key-value pair. For example,
{"numberOfRatings": "12"}
The keys use camel case names that match the fields in the Item interactions dataset's schema. In the above example, the
numberOfRatings
would match the 'NUMBER_OF_RATINGS' field defined in the Item interactions dataset's schema.The following can't be included as a keyword for properties (case insensitive).
