Overview
This topic discusses the JSON representation of domain objects. Domains specify the set of valid values for a field.
The following domain objects are discussed:
- Range Domain
- Coded value domain
- Inherited domain
Range domain
Range domain specifies a range of valid values for a field. The type property for range domains is range.
{
"type": "range",
"name": "<domainName>",
"range": [ <minValue>, <maxValue> ]
}
Coded value domain
Coded value domain specifies an explicit set of valid values for a field. Each valid value is assigned a unique name. The type
property for coded value domains is coded
.
{
"type": "codedValue",
"name": "<domainName>",
"codedValues": [
{"name": "<codeName1>", "code": <code1>},
{"name": "<codeName2>", "code": <code2> }
]
}
Inherited domain
Inherited domains apply to domains on subtypes. It implies that the domain for a field at the subtype level is the same as the domain for the field at the layer level.
{
"type": "inherited"
}
