Validation

The type of media data contained within the string value. Typical values are

• The value of this property must be a media type, as defined by RFC 2046 [RFC2046]. This property defines the media type of instances which this schema defines.
• The value of this property MUST be a string.
• The value of this property SHOULD be ignored if the instance described is not a string.
• If the "contentEncoding" property is not present, but the instance value is a string, then the value of this property SHOULD specify a text document type, and the character set SHOULD be the character set into which the JSON string value was decoded (for which the default is Unicode).

{
    "type": "string",
    "contentEncoding": "base64",
    "contentMediaType": "image/png"
}

{
    "type": "string",
    "contentMediaType": "text/html"
}

Graphical Representation

The constraint is represented in line within the diagram, properties with the icon  apply to instance string values.

Constraints are also shown in the property grid when the containing schema is selected.

The constraint values are also shown on the tooltips (select and hover over an item in the diagram).

Editing

Its value can be edited in the following ways

• In place on the schema object by expanding the properties and clicking on it once it is already selected.
• Edited via the properties window when the containing schema is selected
• Edited directly in the Json Source view.

It can be deleted by selecting it and pressing delete, or right clicking it an pressing delete.
