Adobe Suite Computed attributes API

Computed attributes enable a field value to be automatically computed based on other values, calculations, and expressions. Computed attributes functionality is in **beta** and is **not** available to all users. Functionality is subject to change. For more information on using this set of endpoints, please read the [computed attributes endpoint guide](https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-platform/profile/computed-attributes/api.html?lang=en#computed-attributes).
