public final class AttributeValue
extends Object
implements SdkPojo, Serializable, ToCopyableBuilder<AttributeValue.Builder,AttributeValue>

Represents the data for an attribute.

Each attribute value is described as a name-value pair. The name is the data type, and the value is the data itself.

- Method Detail
  - s
```
public final String s()
```
    An attribute of type String. For example:
    
    "S": "Hello"
    
    Returns:
    
    An attribute of type String. For example:
    
    "S": "Hello"
  - n
```
public final String n()
```
    An attribute of type Number. For example:
    
    "N": "123.45"
    
    Numbers are sent across the network to DynamoDB as strings, to maximize compatibility across languages and libraries. However, DynamoDB treats them as number type attributes for mathematical operations.
    
    Returns:
    
    An attribute of type Number. For example:
    
    "N": "123.45"
    
    Numbers are sent across the network to DynamoDB as strings, to maximize compatibility across languages and libraries. However, DynamoDB treats them as number type attributes for mathematical operations.
  - b
```
public final SdkBytes b()
```
    An attribute of type Binary. For example:
    
    "B": "dGhpcyB0ZXh0IGlzIGJhc2U2NC1lbmNvZGVk"
    
    Returns:
    
    An attribute of type Binary. For example:
    
    "B": "dGhpcyB0ZXh0IGlzIGJhc2U2NC1lbmNvZGVk"
  - hasSs
```
public final boolean hasSs()
```
    For responses, this returns true if the service returned a value for the SS property. This DOES NOT check that the value is non-empty (for which, you should check the isEmpty() method on the property). This is useful because the SDK will never return a null collection or map, but you may need to differentiate between the service returning nothing (or null) and the service returning an empty collection or map. For requests, this returns true if a value for the property was specified in the request builder, and false if a value was not specified.
  - ss
```
public final List<String> ss()
```
    An attribute of type String Set. For example:
    
    "SS": ["Giraffe", "Hippo" ,"Zebra"]
    
    Attempts to modify the collection returned by this method will result in an UnsupportedOperationException.
    
    This method will never return null. If you would like to know whether the service returned this field (so that you can differentiate between null and empty), you can use the hasSs() method.
    
    Returns:
    
    An attribute of type String Set. For example:
    
    "SS": ["Giraffe", "Hippo" ,"Zebra"]
  - hasNs
```
public final boolean hasNs()
```
    For responses, this returns true if the service returned a value for the NS property. This DOES NOT check that the value is non-empty (for which, you should check the isEmpty() method on the property). This is useful because the SDK will never return a null collection or map, but you may need to differentiate between the service returning nothing (or null) and the service returning an empty collection or map. For requests, this returns true if a value for the property was specified in the request builder, and false if a value was not specified.
  - ns
```
public final List<String> ns()
```
    An attribute of type Number Set. For example:
    
    "NS": ["42.2", "-19", "7.5", "3.14"]
    
    Numbers are sent across the network to DynamoDB as strings, to maximize compatibility across languages and libraries. However, DynamoDB treats them as number type attributes for mathematical operations.
    
    Attempts to modify the collection returned by this method will result in an UnsupportedOperationException.
    
    This method will never return null. If you would like to know whether the service returned this field (so that you can differentiate between null and empty), you can use the hasNs() method.
    
    Returns:
    
    An attribute of type Number Set. For example:
    
    "NS": ["42.2", "-19", "7.5", "3.14"]
    
    Numbers are sent across the network to DynamoDB as strings, to maximize compatibility across languages and libraries. However, DynamoDB treats them as number type attributes for mathematical operations.
  - hasBs
```
public final boolean hasBs()
```
    For responses, this returns true if the service returned a value for the BS property. This DOES NOT check that the value is non-empty (for which, you should check the isEmpty() method on the property). This is useful because the SDK will never return a null collection or map, but you may need to differentiate between the service returning nothing (or null) and the service returning an empty collection or map. For requests, this returns true if a value for the property was specified in the request builder, and false if a value was not specified.
  - bs
```
public final List<SdkBytes> bs()
```
    An attribute of type Binary Set. For example:
    
    "BS": ["U3Vubnk=", "UmFpbnk=", "U25vd3k="]
    
    Attempts to modify the collection returned by this method will result in an UnsupportedOperationException.
    
    This method will never return null. If you would like to know whether the service returned this field (so that you can differentiate between null and empty), you can use the hasBs() method.
    
    Returns:
    
    An attribute of type Binary Set. For example:
    
    "BS": ["U3Vubnk=", "UmFpbnk=", "U25vd3k="]
  - hasM
```
public final boolean hasM()
```
    For responses, this returns true if the service returned a value for the M property. This DOES NOT check that the value is non-empty (for which, you should check the isEmpty() method on the property). This is useful because the SDK will never return a null collection or map, but you may need to differentiate between the service returning nothing (or null) and the service returning an empty collection or map. For requests, this returns true if a value for the property was specified in the request builder, and false if a value was not specified.
  - m
```

```
    An attribute of type Map. For example:
    
    "M": {"Name": {"S": "Joe"}, "Age": {"N": "35"}}
    
    Attempts to modify the collection returned by this method will result in an UnsupportedOperationException.
    
    This method will never return null. If you would like to know whether the service returned this field (so that you can differentiate between null and empty), you can use the hasM() method.
    
    Returns:
    
    An attribute of type Map. For example:
    
    "M": {"Name": {"S": "Joe"}, "Age": {"N": "35"}}
  - hasL
```
public final boolean hasL()
```
    For responses, this returns true if the service returned a value for the L property. This DOES NOT check that the value is non-empty (for which, you should check the isEmpty() method on the property). This is useful because the SDK will never return a null collection or map, but you may need to differentiate between the service returning nothing (or null) and the service returning an empty collection or map. For requests, this returns true if a value for the property was specified in the request builder, and false if a value was not specified.
  - l

    "L": [ {"S": "Cookies"} , {"S": "Coffee"}, {"N": "3.14159"}]
    
    Attempts to modify the collection returned by this method will result in an UnsupportedOperationException.
    
    This method will never return null. If you would like to know whether the service returned this field (so that you can differentiate between null and empty), you can use the hasL() method.
    
    Returns:
    
    An attribute of type List. For example:
