How to interpret this table
Supported means Google documents a use for the structured data; it does not guarantee a special rich-result display. Limited means a feature is conditional, nested or restricted to another Google surface. Retired refers to a particular Google Search feature, not to the Schema.org vocabulary. New catalogue-only rows provide status guidance, not full field-level validation.
For a complete assessment, use both the Schema Markup Validator and Google Rich Results Test.
The local data file is publicly readable JSON, so status and dates can be audited.
