## Representation

The Base node is the basis for all other Active Directory nodes and is used when a node type is unknown, for example, after an object is deleted. The node is retained as it may have edges linked to/from it.

## Node properties

The node supports the properties of the table. Three types of property names will be used, depending on where the property is found:

* **Entity Panel:** Name shown in the BloodHound UI.
* **Database:** Name stored in the BloodHound database and returned by the BloodHound API. This is to be used when running Cypher queries.
* **Directory:** Name collected from the directory the node is stored in, for example, the LDAP name for an Active Directory property.
