Type annotations are no longer required. See Custom Properties.

    schema object optional

    A JSON object with key/value pairs that provide explicit type inference for your properties. See Custom Properties.

Limits

  • Sustained calls are limited to 60 calls per user per page per minute with a burst limit of 40 calls per second.
  • Arrays of objects will not be indexed (arrays of strings and numbers will be indexed) with the exception of Order Completed events.
