# Trait Value Object Reference

Source: https://support.storeconnect.com/articles/trait-value-object-reference · Last modified 21 August 2026

## Overview

A specific value for a Trait_Type__c. For example, for a "Color" Trait Type, the Trait Value would be "Red" or "Blue". These are stored individually so they can be used across multiple Product2 objects via the Trait__c object allowing for easy filtering and searching. The values are stored in different fields depending on their Trait Type - a "Decimal" Trait Type would store value on the Decimal__c field.

| Property | Value |
|----------|-------|
| **API Name** | `s_c__Trait_Value__c` |
| **Label** | Trait Value |
| **Plural Label** | Trait Values |
