# Options

The `Options` object is the base object for all options on methods, such as `Create`. To avoid specifying a `ClientID` for all objects in the call, specify `ClientID` on this object.

## Properties

| Name                    | Data Type                                       | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  |
| ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `CallsInConversation`   | Integer                                         | The number of calls that must be received before the asynchronous API begins processing the conversation. If you specify this property, you must also specify the `ConversationID` property.                                                                                                 |
| `Client`                | [ClientID](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/marketing/marketing-cloud/guide/clientid.md) object                  | Specifies the account ownership and context of an object.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    |
| `ConversationID`        | String                                          | A unique ID for grouping multiple calls into a single conversation. All calls with the same ConversationID are processed as a single unit.                                                                                                                                                   |
| `Priority`              | String                                          | This property is deprecated.

| `QueuePriority`         | [Priority](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/marketing/marketing-cloud/guide/priority.md) object                  | Defines the priority for asynchronous sends. Accepted values are `High`, `Medium`, and `Low`. The default value is `Medium`.                                                                                                                                                                 |
| `RequestExpirationTime` | String                                          | The date and time when the asynchronous API request expires. Specify the value in ISO 8601 format with UTC time or with a timezone offset. When you specify both `RequestExpirationTime` and `ScheduledTime` in a request, the `RequestExpirationTime` must occur after the `ScheduledTime`. |
| `RequestType`           | [RequestType](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/marketing/marketing-cloud/guide/requesttype.md) object            | The type of request.

Specify the value in ISO 8601 format with UTC time or a timezone offset. The specified time can be up to 30 days in the future.                                                                                                    |
| `SendResponseTo`        | Array [AsyncResponse](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/marketing/marketing-cloud/guide/asyncresponse.md) objects | Defines how responses are returned and under what conditions.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                |
