Hi,

There is one field in my json item called "result.internalKeyValuePairs.be.score".

{"result.internalKeyValuePairs.be.score": "0.0"}

For this type of field, I want it to be a plain text "result.internalKeyValuePairs.be.score", not be involved any object type because '.' here would cause the relationship problem.

For instance, if I have another called "result.internalKeyValuePairs.be.action", I do not want them to have any relations. Just different names of the field.

I am going to do the mapping later so I am wondering if there is any way to avoid this conflict.
