+**Since V2.0.8.3**, the Python client has supported `TSDataType.OBJECT` for Tablet batch write and Session value serialization. Query results are read via the `Field` object. The related interfaces are defined as follows:
+
+| Function Name | Description | Parameters | Return Value |
+|---------------|-------------|------------|--------------|
+| `encode_object_cell` | Encodes a single OBJECT cell into wire-format bytes | `is_eof: bool`,<br>`offset: int`,<br>`content: bytes` | `bytes`: `|[eof 1B]|[offset 8B BE]|[payload]|` |
+| `decode_object_cell` | Parses a wire-format cell back into `eof`, `offset`, and `payload` | `cell: bytes` (length ≥ 9) | `Tuple[bool, int, bytes]`: `(is_eof, offset, payload)` |
+| `Tablet.add_value_object` | Writes an OBJECT cell at the specified row and column (internally calls `encode_object_cell`) | `row_index: int`,<br>`column_index: int`,<br>`is_eof: bool`,<br>`offset: int`,<br>`content: bytes` | `None` |
+| `Tablet.add_value_object_by_name` | Same as above, locates column by name | `column_name: str`,<br>`row_index: int`,<br>`is_eof: bool`,<br>`offset: int`,<br>`content: bytes` | `None` |
+| `NumpyTablet.add_value_object` | Same semantics as `Tablet.add_value_object`, column data is stored as `ndarray` | Same as above (`row_index`, `column_index`, ...) | `None` |
+| `Field.get_object_value` | Converts the value to a Python value based on the **target type** | `data_type: TSDataType` | Depends on type:<br>For OBJECT: `str` decoded from the entire `self.value` in UTF-8 (see Field.py) |
+| `Field.get_string_value` | Returns a string representation | None | `str`;<br>For OBJECT: `self.value.decode("utf-8")` |
+| `Field.get_binary_value` | Gets the binary data of TEXT/STRING/BLOB | None | `bytes` or `None`;<br>**Throws an error for OBJECT columns and should not be called** |
