## Types

### AppConfigValue

Represents a configured value for a Benchling App on a specific tenant. Each config value has a path identifying its location in the configuration hierarchy and valueData containing the actual value. Config values are defined by the app's configuration spec and set during installation or later configuration.

- `__typename` (string, optional)
- `createdAt` (string, optional, nullable) — DateTime at which the config value was created.
- `description` (string, optional, nullable)
- `id` (string, optional)
- `modifiedAt` (string, optional, nullable) — DateTime at which the config value was last modified.
- `path` (list of string, optional)
- `valueData` (AppConfigValueValueData, optional, nullable) — Union of BooleanAppConfigValue, IntegerAppConfigValue, FloatAppConfigValue, TextAppConfigValue, SecureTextAppConfigValue, DateAppConfigValue, DateTimeAppConfigValue, JsonAppConfigValue, ArrayElementAppConfigValue, EntitySchemaAppConfigValue, ResourceAppConfigValue

### GeneralErrorDetail

### TooManyRequestsErrorBodyDetail

### InternalServerErrorBodyDetail

### AppConfigValueValueData

### BooleanAppConfigValue

Stores a boolean value in an app configuration field.

- `__typename` (string, optional)
- `value` (boolean, optional, nullable)

### IntegerAppConfigValue

Stores an integer value in an app configuration field.

- `__typename` (string, optional)
- `value` (integer, optional, nullable)

### FloatAppConfigValue

Stores a floating-point number value in an app configuration field.

- `__typename` (string, optional)
- `value` (double, optional, nullable)

### TextAppConfigValue

Stores a text string value in an app configuration field.

- `__typename` (string, optional)
- `value` (string, optional, nullable)

### SecureTextAppConfigValue

Stores a secure (encrypted) text value in an app configuration field. Used for sensitive data like API keys or credentials.

- `__typename` (string, optional)
- `value` (string, optional, nullable)

### DateAppConfigValue

Stores a date value in an app configuration field.

- `__typename` (string, optional)
- `value` (date, optional, nullable)

### DateTimeAppConfigValue

Stores a datetime value in an app configuration field.

- `__typename` (string, optional)
- `value` (string, optional, nullable)

### JsonAppConfigValue

Stores a JSON value (as a string) in an app configuration field.

- `__typename` (string, optional)
- `value` (string, optional, nullable)

### ArrayElementAppConfigValue

Stores an element value within an array-type app configuration.

- `__typename` (string, optional)
- `value` (string, optional, nullable)

### EntitySchemaAppConfigValue

Stores a reference to an entity schema in an app configuration field. Kept separate from ResourceAppConfigValue because it carries a subtype identifying the kind of entity (DNA sequence, AA sequence, etc.).

- `__typename` (string, optional)
- `subtype` (enum, optional, nullable) — Identifies the entity subtype of the configured schema (e.g. DNA_SEQUENCE, AA_SEQUENCE).
  - Allowed values: `AA_SEQUENCE`, `CUSTOM_ENTITY`, `DNA_OLIGO`, `DNA_SEQUENCE`, `MIXTURE`, `MOLECULE`, `RNA_OLIGO`, `RNA_SEQUENCE`
- `value` (string, optional, nullable)

### ResourceAppConfigValue

Stores a reference to any Benchling object or schema that is identified by a resource ID. The type field identifies what kind of resource is referenced, matching the BenchlingAppType values used in app manifests. Covers all linked resource types except EntitySchema (which has a subtype) and array elements.

- `__typename` (string, optional)
- `type` (enum, optional, nullable)
  - Allowed values: `BOX_SCHEMA`, `CONTAINER_SCHEMA`, `ENTRY_SCHEMA`, `LEGACY_REQUEST_SCHEMA`, `LOCATION_SCHEMA`, `PLATE_SCHEMA`, `RESULT_SCHEMA`, `RUN_SCHEMA`, `WORKFLOW_TASK_SCHEMA`, `AA_SEQUENCE`, `ASSAY_RESULT`, `ASSAY_RUN`, `AUTOMATION_INPUT_GENERATOR`, `AUTOMATION_OUTPUT_PROCESSOR`, `BLOB`, `BOX`, `CONTAINER`, `CUSTOM_ENTITY`, `DNA_ALIGNMENT`, `DNA_OLIGO`, `DNA_SEQUENCE`, `DROPDOWN`, `DROPDOWN_OPTION`, `ENTRY`, `FIELD`, `FOLDER`, `LEGACY_REQUEST`, `LOCATION`, `MIXTURE`, `MOLECULE`, `PLATE`, `PROJECT`, `REGISTRY`, `RNA_OLIGO`, `RNA_SEQUENCE`, `WORKFLOW_TASK_STATUS`, `WORKLIST`
- `value` (string, optional, nullable)
