# Vault types

Vault types define internal classifications for vault contracts, distinguishing between different logic structures, yield mechanisms, or operational modes. These types are useful for rendering vault metadata, sorting/filtering in UI, or determining strategy compatibility.

## Structure

Each vault type object includes:

* `_id` *(string)* — Unique identifier
* `code` *(string)* — Internal reference code for the vault type
* `name` *(object)* — Multilingual object (e.g., `{ en: "Fixed Rate" }`)
* `description` *(object)* — Multilingual description object
* `createdAt`, `updatedAt` *(string)* — ISO UTC timestamps
* `createdBy`, `updatedBy` *(string)* — Actor IDs
