Map of property descriptor names to values. Most types, such as strings and numbers, are just stored as simple properties. Properties of type FileLink will be returned by the server in the same format as Data objects (missing many properties such as id and createdBy if they exist on disk but have no row with metadata in the database). FileLink values are accepted from the client in the same way, or a simple value of the following three types: the data's RowId, the data's LSID, or the full path on the server's file system.

rowId: number

The id of the ExpObject (alias of id property)

The optional SampleSet the DataClass is associated with.
