Timezone

Timezone fields represent a specific time zone using a time zone code. See Supported Time Zones for a list of Firmwater LMS supported time zones and associated codes.

String

String fields contain text and may have length restrictions. Ordinarily, Firmwater LMS will truncate strings that exceed the length restriction; however, if an object instance identifying field exceeds the restriction, an error is returned to the client application (refer to Identifying Fields under Firmwater LMS Objects).

Boolean

Boolean fields are true/false flags and have either of two values:

• true (or 1)
• false (or 0)
