Create Attribute panel

The Create Attribute panel opens as a side drawer where you can define a new custom attribute. Fields marked with a sparkle icon support AI-assisted generation — Rosetta Stone can suggest a display name, name, and description based on what you enter.
| Field | Description | Required |

| Display Name | Human-readable label shown in UIs. AI-assisted. | Yes |
| Name | Machine-readable identifier. Must be snake_case (e.g., user_email). AI-assisted. | Yes |
| Description | Explains what the attribute represents and how it should be interpreted. AI-assisted. | Yes |

Start by entering a display name — Rosetta Stone can generate the snake_case name and a description for you automatically.
Type
| Field | Description | Required |

| Type | The data type for the attribute. Options: String, Long, Double, Boolean, Timestamptz, Object, Array. | Yes |
