A DataType is used to set the type of a variable. The type can be one of the basic data type or a Workspace Studio-specific resource type.

Sample usage:

const dataType = AddOnsResponseService.newDataType()
    .setBasicDataType(
      AddOnsResponseService.BasicDataType.STRING
    )
    .setValueMetadata(
      AddOnsResponseService.newValueMetadata()
        .addEnumValue("sample_enum_value")
    );

let resourceField = AddOnsResponseService.newResourceField()
    .setSelector("question_1")
    .setDisplayText("Question 1")
    .setDataType(dataType);

}
