### Nested schemas
|
123
|
+
|
124
|
+
JDE supports nested schemas. Just provide your element with a type of `array` and add a `schema` key for its data.
|
125
|
+
|
126
|
+
E.g. this is a valid real-life schema with nested data:
|
127
|
+
|
128
|
+
```ruby
|
129
|
+
{
|
130
|
+
name: '$.Name',
|
131
|
+
code: '$.Code',
|
132
|
+
services: '$.Services[*].Code',
|
133
|
+
locations: {
|
134
|
+
path: '$.Locations[*]',
|
135
|
+
type: 'array',
|
136
|
+
schema: {
|
137
|
+
name: '$.Name',
|
138
|
+
type: '$.Type',
|
139
|
+
code: '$.Code'

}
