Which of the following statements about adding properties to MTS are true? (select all that apply)

Properties can be supplied through the public REST API or directly from the UI (Metric Metadata). A property is saved on a specific dimension key=value pair; every MTS that carries that same dimension inherits the property automatically. Properties are metadata and are therefore not carried inside datapoint ingestion calls.

A. Correct – Supported through /property API endpoints.

B. Properties are sent in with datapoints – Datapoint payloads accept dimensions and values only, not properties; metadata calls are separate.

C. Correct – Properties are stored on dimension key:value and cascade to all associated MTS.

D. Correct – UI path: Metrics → Metric Metadata → Add Property.
