"A note on adding and retreiving STIX content to the Memory suite: As mentioned, under the hood the Memory suite is an internal, in-memory dictionary. STIX content that is to be added can be in the following forms: python-stix2 objects, (Python) dictionaries (of valid STIX objects or Bundles), JSON-encoded strings (of valid STIX objects or Bundles), or a (Python) list of any of the previously listed types. [MemoryStore](../api/datastore/stix2.datastore.memory.rst#stix2.datastore.memory.MemoryStore) actually stores STIX content either as python-stix2 objects or as (Python) dictionaries, reducing and converting any of the aforementioned types to one of those. Additionally, whatever form the STIX object is stored as, is how it will be returned when retrieved. python-stix2 objects, and json-encoded strings (of STIX content) are stored as python-stix2 objects, while (Python) dictionaries (of STIX objects) are stored as (Python) dictionaries.\n",
