Custom Properties
Name-value pairs for setting additional properties on the object that is created at run time for this resource.
We must enter a name that is a public property on the object and a value that can be converted from a string to the type required by the set method of the property. The acceptable properties and values depend on the object that is created. Refer to the object documentation for a list of valid properties and values.
