Properties You Can Include

AskAction schema supports the following schema.org properties. Required fields are the minimum Google needs to consider your markup valid; recommended fields unlock richer search result appearances.

Property	Description	Expected Type	Status
about	The subject matter of an object.	Thing	Optional
actionProcess	Description of the process by which the action was performed.	HowTo	Optional
actionStatus	Indicates the current disposition of the Action.	ActionStatusType	Optional
additionalType	An additional type for the item, typically used for adding more specific types from external vocabularies in microdata syntax. This is a relationship between something and a class that the thing is in. Typically the value is a URI-identified RDF class, and in this case corresponds to the use of rdf:type in RDF. Text values can be used sparingly, for cases where useful information can be added without their being an appropriate schema to reference. In the case of text values, the class label should follow the schema.org style guide.	Text, URL	Optional
agent	The direct performer or driver of the action (animate or inanimate). E.g. John wrote a book.	Organization, Person	Optional
alternateName	An alias for the item.	Text	Optional
description	A description of the item.	Text, TextObject	Optional
disambiguatingDescription	A sub property of description. A short description of the item used to disambiguate from other, similar items. Information from other properties (in particular, name) may be necessary for the description to be useful for disambiguation.	Text	Optional
endTime	The endTime of something. For a reserved event or service (e.g. FoodEstablishmentReservation), the time that it is expected to end. For actions that span a period of time, when the action was performed. E.g. John wrote a book from January to December. For media, including audio and video, it's the time offset of the end of a clip within a larger file.\n\nNote that Event uses startDate/endDate instead of startTime/endTime, even when describing dates with times. This situation may be clarified in future revisions.	DateTime, Time	Optional
error	For failed actions, more information on the cause of the failure. Consider using the Error type.	Thing	Optional
identifier	The identifier property represents any kind of identifier for any kind of Thing, such as ISBNs, GTIN codes, UUIDs etc. Schema.org provides dedicated properties for representing many of these, either as textual strings or as URL (URI) links. See [background notes](/docs/datamodel.html#identifierBg) for more details.	PropertyValue, Text, URL	Optional
image	An image of the item. This can be a URL or a fully described ImageObject.	ImageObject, URL	Recommended
inLanguage	The language of the content or performance or used in an action. Please use one of the language codes from the [IETF BCP 47 standard](http://tools.ietf.org/html/bcp47). See also availableLanguage.	Language, Text	Optional
instrument	The object that helped the agent perform the action. E.g. John wrote a book with a pen.	Thing	Optional
language	A sub property of instrument. The language used on this action.	Language	Optional
location	The location of, for example, where an event is happening, where an organization is located, or where an action takes place.	Place, PostalAddress, Text, VirtualLocation	Optional
mainEntityOfPage	Indicates a page (or other CreativeWork) for which this thing is the main entity being described. See [background notes](/docs/datamodel.html#mainEntityBackground) for details.	CreativeWork, URL	Optional
name	The name of the item.	Text	Required
object	The object upon which the action is carried out, whose state is kept intact or changed. Also known as the semantic roles patient, affected or undergoer (which change their state) or theme (which doesn't). E.g. John read a book.	Thing	Optional
owner	A person or organization who owns this Thing.	Organization, Person	Optional
