OrganizationRole

schema:Thing > schema:Intangible > schema:Role > schema:OrganizationRole

A subclass of Role used to describe roles within organizations.

Property	Expected Type	Description
Properties from schema:OrganizationRole
`schema:numberedPosition`	schema:Number	A number associated with a role in an organization, for example, the number on an athlete's jersey.
Properties from schema:Role
`schema:endDate`	schema:Date	The end date and time of the item (in ISO 8601 date format).
`schema:roleName`	schema:URL or schema:Text	A role played, performed or filled by a person or organization. For example, the team of creators for a comic book might fill the roles named 'inker', 'penciller', and 'letterer'; or an athlete in a SportsTeam might play in the position named 'Quarterback'. Supersedes schema:namedPosition.
`schema:startDate`	schema:Date	The start date and time of the item (in ISO 8601 date format).
Properties from schema:Thing
`schema:additionalType`	schema:URL	An additional type for the item, typically used for adding more specific types from external vocabularies in microdata syntax. This is a relationship between something and a class that the thing is in. In RDFa syntax, it is better to use the native RDFa syntax - the 'typeof' attribute - for multiple types. Schema.org tools may have only weaker understanding of extra types, in particular those defined externally.
`schema:alternateName`	schema:Text	An alias for the item.
`schema:description`	schema:Text	A short description of the item.
`schema:image`	schema:ImageObject or schema:URL	An image of the item. This can be a URL or a fully described ImageObject.
`schema:name`	schema:Text	The name of the item.
`schema:potentialAction`	schema:Action	Indicates a potential Action, which describes an idealized action in which this thing would play an 'object' role.
`schema:sameAs`	schema:URL	URL of a reference Web page that unambiguously indicates the item's identity. E.g. the URL of the item's Wikipedia page, Freebase page, or official website.
`schema:url`	schema:URL	URL of the item.

A JSON example of an OrganizationRole being used to qualify
the 'alumni' property. Note that we use startDate to indicate
when the alumni situation began, which was the date of leaving
the organization.
