locales carries other languages: under each language code, the parts of clipData and metaData that differ, laid over the default, so a language with no copy still renders.
A picture is always a file from your media library: media:// followed by its id or its name.
Anything the table does not list is refused, and so is anything over its limit, with a 400
schema_validation error that names the field.

"captionMedium": "Midsummer in Halden: the sun rises at 04:31 and sets at 22:17, 17 hours and 46 minutes later, the longest day of the year. The sky stays light enough to read by from first light at 03:42 to last light at 23:06, and between the two it never gets fully dark. The sun stands highest at 13:24. For photographers, golden hour runs from 04:31 to 05:28 this morning and from 21:20 to 22:17 tonight. The midsummer fair on the quay is open from 16:00 to 21:00, so there is time for one more walk along the water before the light goes.",

The midsummer fair on the quay is open from 16:00 to 21:00, so there is time for one more walk along the water before the light goes. From tomorrow the days get shorter again, by less than a minute a day at first and by about four minutes a day by the end of August. Times are for the harbour; inland they differ by a minute or two.",

feedId names this feed and never changes, even when the feed is renamed. eventId is set once
per event, so an event delivered twice is published once. occurredAt is when it happened, which
is what the freshness limit is measured from.
