Attribute value definition

← Return to Glossary

The attribute value definition defines the structure of an attribute. 

  • It associates the attribute with the attribute value.
  • In cases where an attribute has more than one attribute value, it defines the default attribute value associated with the attribute. This is important because if a data fetch is requested for the Entity:Attribute, and no attribute value has been supplied, then the system will use the default value. 

The complete syntax for an attribute value definition, including the entity, is:

Entity:Attribute!AttributeValue

For example:

Well 1:Flow Rate!Actual
