# Supported Data Types

> Our API accepts the following data types for inputs and outputs. Please ensure that your data conforms to one of these types for compatibility.

## **File Naming Convention**

All field names follow the **snake\_case** format:\
`<descriptive_term>_<type_or_context>`

* Use lowercase letters only.
* Words are separated by underscores (`_`).
* Examples:
  * `received_date`
  * `user_name`
  * `is_active`
  * `status_enum`

This consistent naming ensures readability and clarity across all API fields.
