- If a given measure element (object_id) is not defined in the mappings of the device or group provision, the measure is stored
281
- in the Context Broker by adding a new attribute to the entity with the same name of the undefined measure element. By adding the
282
- field `explicitAttrs` with `true` value to device or group provision, the IoTAgent rejects the measure elements that are not defined
283

308
+ the mappings of the provision. If `explicitAttrs` is provided both at device and group level, the device level takes
309
+ precedence. Additionally `explicitAttrs` can be used to define which meassures defined in JSON/JEXL array will be
310
+ propagated to NGSI interface.
311
+
312
+ The different possibilities are summarized below:
313
+
314
+ Case 1 (default):
315
+
316
+ ```
317

318
+ ```
319

320
+ every measure will be propagated to NGSI interface.
321
+
322
+ Case 2:
323
+
324
+ ```
325
+ "explicitAttrs": true
326
+ ```
327
+
328
+ just measures defined in active, static (plus conditionally TimeInstant) will be propagated to NGSI interface.
329
+
330
+ Case 3:
331
+
332
+ ```
333
+ "explicitAttrs": "['attr1','atrr2']"
334
+ ```
335
+
336
+ just measures defined in the array will be will be propagated to NGSI interface (note that in this case the value of
337
+ `explicitAttrs` is not a JSON but a string that looks likes a JSON).
338
+
339
+ Case 4:
340
+
341
+ ```
342
+ "explicitAtttr": "<JEXL expression resulting in bool or array>"
343
+ ```
344
+
345
+ depending on the JEXL expression evaluation:
346
+
347
+ - If it evaluates to `true` every measure will be propagated to NGSI interface (as in case 1)
348
+ - If it evaluates to `false` just measures defined in active, static (plus conditionally TimeInstant) will be
349
