Specifies whether the origin of the attribute is managed in an external source like an ERP system or managed by a cloud function like an AWS Lambda or Azure Function and hence the attribute should be read-only for the editors in the Bluestone PIM web application UI.

string

ID of the attribute group that the attribute definition belongs to.

Example: 634c26e14cedfd0001775e9f
