# ShareAttributes
<a name="API_ShareAttributes"></a>

Specifies the weights for the share identifiers for the fair-share policy. Share identifiers that aren't included have a default weight of `1.0`.

 ** shareIdentifier **   <a name="Batch-Type-ShareAttributes-shareIdentifier"></a>
A share identifier or share identifier prefix. If the string ends with an asterisk (\$1), this entry specifies the weight factor to use for share identifiers that start with that prefix. The list of share identifiers in a fair-share policy can't overlap. For example, you can't have one that specifies a `shareIdentifier` of `UserA*` and another that specifies a `shareIdentifier` of `UserA1`.  
There can be no more than 500 share identifiers active in a job queue.  
The string is limited to 255 alphanumeric characters, and can be followed by an asterisk (\$1).  
Type: String  
Required: Yes

 ** weightFactor **   <a name="Batch-Type-ShareAttributes-weightFactor"></a>
The weight factor for the share identifier. The default value is 1.0. A lower value has a higher priority for compute resources. For example, jobs that use a share identifier with a weight factor of 0.125 (1/8) get 8 times the compute resources of jobs that use a share identifier with a weight factor of 1.  
The smallest supported value is 0.0001, and the largest supported value is 999.9999.  
Type: Float  
Required: No
