**Kind**: `input`

## Fields

**`entityType`**: `String!` (required)

The kind of record the attribute can be assigned to. It cannot be changed afterwards. Known values: ITEM, CATEGORY. The set can grow; a client must tolerate values it does not know.

---

**`groupName`**: `String!` (required)

The name of the group the attribute is displayed under. A name that matches an existing group of the same entity type apart from letter case uses the existing spelling. It must not contain the character '#'.

---

**`names`**: `[AttributeNameInput]!` (required)

The names per language. The name in the default language is required; the other active languages are optional. One entry per language.

---

**`dataType`**: `String`

The data type, TEXT or VALUE_LIST. Defaults to 'TEXT'. It cannot be changed afterwards.

---

**`allowedValues`**: `[MultilingualAllowedValueInput]`

The allowed values in the order they are offered. Required, with at least one entry, for data type 'VALUE_LIST'; not allowed for 'TEXT'. Entries are distinct ignoring letter case in the default language.

---

**`description`**: `String`

An internal description of the attribute for staff.

---

**`sortOrder`**: `Int`

The position within the group, starting at 1. Defaults to the end of the group; a larger value also places the attribute at the end.

---

**`activeSalesChannels`**: `[AttributeSalesChannelInput]`

The online shops the attribute is transferred to. Defaults to none.

---

**`idempotencyKey`**: `String`

Client-supplied idempotency key. When provided, a repeated request with the same key and payload replays the original result instead of re-executing the mutation.
