+## Scope Methods
+
+### Setting Attributes
+
+Users MUST be able to attach attributes to any scope using a dedicated method (e.g., `scope.setAttributes()` or `scope.setAttribute()`). These attributes follow the structure defined in the [Span Protocol](/sdk/telemetry/spans/span-protocol/#attribute-object-properties).
+
+Attributes are key-value pairs where each value is an object containing:
+
+- `type`: The data type (`"string"`, `"integer"`, `"double"`, or `"boolean"`)
+- `value`: The actual attribute value, which MUST match the specified type
+- `unit` (optional): The unit of measurement (e.g., `"ms"`, `"s"`, `"bytes"`, `"count"`, `"percent"`)
+
+#### Example Usage
+
+```javascript
+Sentry.getGlobalScope().setAttributes({
+  "app.feature_flag.enabled": {
+    type: "boolean",
+    value: true
+  },
+  "app.session_duration": {
+    type: "integer",
+    value: 3600,
+    unit: "s"
+  }
+});
+```
+
+```python
+sentry_sdk.get_global_scope().set_attributes({
+    "app.feature_flag.enabled": {
+        "type": "boolean",
+        "value": True
+    },
+    "app.session_duration": {
+        "type": "integer",
+        "value": 3600,
+        "unit": "s"
+    }
+})
+```
+
+#### Method Signature
+
+The method SHOULD accept a dictionary/map/object where:
+- Keys are attribute names (strings)
+- Values are attribute objects with `type`, `value`, and optionally `unit` properties
+
+#### Behavior
+
+- Attributes set on the global scope MUST be applied to all logs
+- Attributes set on the isolation scope MUST be applied to all logs in that execution context
+- Attributes set on the current scope MUST be applied only to the current log
+- When the same attribute key exists in multiple scopes, the more specific scope's value takes precedence (current > isolation > global)
+
+See [Span Protocol - Common Attribute Keys](/sdk/telemetry/spans/span-protocol/#common-attribute-keys) for a list of standard attributes and [Sentry Conventions](https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-conventions/) for the complete attribute registry.
