Field schema
153 items.
| Field | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| value | string | The canonical, unique value — what a query resolves to. |
| displayValue | string | The locale-resolved label a suggestion renders. |
| description | string, optional | Free-text detail shown beside the item. NAICS uses it for the ancestor breadcrumb; not every dataset sets it. |
| parentSourceId | string, optional | The parent item in the source’s own key space, for a hierarchical dataset. |
| hierarchyLevel | string, optional | Which level of the hierarchy this item sits at. |
| displayOrder | integer | Curated display order, distinct from relevance rank (`DEC-LIST-004`). |
| aliases | string[] | Alternate spellings that resolve to this item at no extra runtime KV read (`DEC-ALIAS-001`). |
| metadata | object | Dataset-specific fields — e.g. NAICS’s `code`/`level`/`trilateral`, or a country’s `alpha2`/`alpha3`/`numeric`. |
