Below are some examples for most input field types.
In most examples, you will notice a JSON property called "Tag". It can be used with most field types and I use it to show the Field Name, Field Type, and/or a comment about the field. This helps me troubleshoot and know what that field is. NOTE: the "Tag" property is not required or a part of the Archer REST API, but it can be taken advantage of since extra properties are ignored.
