Disallowing Undefined Properties

Without preventing it, JSON schemas for an Object Type in Contextual allow for the creation and storage of Records that include properties and values that are not explicitly defined in the schema. To prevent this from happening, include additionalProperties: false in your schema, as shown in this example:

Data Schema Example

{
  "primaryKey": "orderNumber",
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "orderNumber": {
      "type": "number",
      "minLength": 3
    },
    "customerName": {
      "type": "string",
      "minLength": 1
    },
    "beverage": {
      "type": "string",
      "enum": [
        "coffee",
        "tea",
        "juice",
        "soda"
      ]
    },
    "food": {
      "type": "string",
      "enum": [
        "bagel",
        "donut",
        "pastry",
        "muffin"
      ]
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "orderNumber", 
    "customerName"
  ],
  "additionalProperties: false
}
