ReadonlydimensionReadonlyidUnique identifier of the entity. This identifier is intended to be consistent across loads of a world instance. No meaning should be inferred from the value and structure of this unique identifier - do not parse or interpret it. This property is accessible even if Entity.isValid is false.
ReadonlylocationOptional ReadonlyscoreboardReadonlytypeIdentifier of the type of the entity - for example, 'minecraft:skeleton'. This property is accessible even if Entity.isValid is false.
Type of effect to add to the entity.

Optionaloptions: EntityEffectOptionsAdditional options for the effect.
Returns nothing if the effect was added or updated successfully. This can throw an error if the duration or amplifier are outside of the valid ranges, or if the effect does not exist.
Adds or updates an effect, like poison, to the entity.
