Specification (Version 2)</h1><p>This document outlines the formal specification for the fieldPath member of
the <a href="https://github.com/datahub-project/datahub/blob/master/metadata-models/src/main/pegasus/com/linkedin/schema/SchemaField.pdl" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">SchemaField</a>
model. This specification (version 2) takes into account the unique requirements of supporting a wide variety of nested
types, unions and optional fields and is a substantial improvement over the current implementation (version 1).</p><h2 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_LWe7" id="requirements">Requirements<a href="#requirements" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to Requirements" title="Direct link to Requirements"></a></h2><p>The <code>fieldPath</code> field is currently used by datahub for not just rendering the schema fields in the UI, but also as a
primary identifier of a field in other places such
as <a href="https://github.com/datahub-project/datahub/blob/master/metadata-models/src/main/pegasus/com/linkedin/schema/EditableSchemaFieldInfo.pdl#L12" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">EditableSchemaFieldInfo</a>,
usage stats and data profiles. Therefore, it must satisfy the following requirements.</p><ul><li>must be unique across all fields within a schema.</li><li>make schema navigation in the UI more intuitive.</li><li>allow for identifying the type of schema the field is part of, such as a <code>key-schema</code> or a <code>value-schema</code>.</li><li>allow for future-evolution</li></ul><h2 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_LWe7" id="existing-conventionv1">Existing Convention(v1)<a href="#existing-conventionv1" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to Existing Convention(v1)" title="Direct link to Existing Convention(v1)"></a></h2><p>The existing convention is to simply use the field&#x27;s name as the <code>fieldPath</code> for simple fields, and use the <code>dot</code>
delimited names for nested fields. This scheme does not satisfy the <a href="#requirements">requirements</a> stated above. The
following example illustrates where the <code>uniqueness</code> requirement is not satisfied.</p><h3 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_LWe7" id="example-ambiguous-field-path">Example: Ambiguous field path<a href="#example-ambiguous-field-path" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to Example: Ambiguous field path" title="Direct link to Example: Ambiguous field path"></a></h3><p>Consider the following <code>Avro</code> schema which is a <code>union</code> of two record types <code>A</code> and <code>B</code>, each having a simple field with
the same name <code>f</code> that is of type <code>string</code>. The v1 naming scheme cannot differentiate if a <code>fieldPath=f</code> is referring to

the corresponding field will be emitted once for each <code>member</code> of the union as its <code>type</code>, along with one path
