Attributes

Attributes let you customize code generation behavior per-organization or per-service. Generators declare which attributes they depend on, and API Builder passes the matching values automatically.

⚙ How Attributes Work

  • Globally unique — Each attribute has a URL-friendly name and optional description.
  • Organization-level defaults — Set attribute values at the org level and they cascade to all applications in that organization.
  • Generator integration — A code generator declares the attribute names it depends on. API Builder sends matching values when invoking the generator.

✦ Setting Attribute Values

To configure attributes for your organization:

  1. Navigate to your organization
  2. Click "Org Details" in the left nav
  3. Select "Org Attributes"
  4. Set values for the attributes used by your generators
