I wanted to understand the difference between "$message" and $attributed_message" when I use metric-aggregate API

I want to get results by campaign ID, so I'm using a group by $massage.
But there is a metric, for example, "order placed," that does not return the breakdown by campaign ID unless I group it by "$attributed_message."
I wanted to know what kind of metrics I should do by "$attributed_message" and what I should do by "$message"

I mean, what indicates that a metric is attribution-related? The metrics are custom to the client, and we do not get such info from the Metrics API

Here’s some info on message attribution:

HI Ronen,

Use $message to group metrics directly tied to specific email campaigns, like emails sent and open rates.

Use $attributed_message to group metrics that require attribution, like "orders placed" or "revenue," where actions are linked back to the influencing campaign.

Thank you
Where can I find documentation that says this metric and this metric are of this type and this type, at least for the default metrics
