Property Expected Type TMPC Mapping description additionalType URLAn additional type for the item, typically used for adding more specific types from external vocabularies in microdata syntax. This is a relationship between something and a class that the thing is in. In RDFa syntax, it is better to use the native RDFa syntax - the 'typeof' attribute - for multiple types. Schema.org tools may have only weaker understanding of extra types, in particular those defined externally.alternateName TextAn alias for the item.description TextA description of the item.disambiguatingDescription TextA sub property of description. A short description of the item used to disambiguate from other, similar items. Information from other properties (in particular, name) may be necessary for the description to be useful for disambiguation.identifier The identifier property represents any kind of identifier for any kind of Thing, such as ISBNs, GTIN codes, UUIDs etc. Schema.org provides dedicated properties for representing many of these, either as textual strings or as URL (URI) links. See background notes for more details.image URLImageObjectAn image of the item. This can be a URL or a fully described ImageObject.mainEntityOfPage URLCreativeWorkIndicates a page (or other CreativeWork) for which this thing is the main entity being described.
