Serge Huber commented on UNOMI-132:
-----------------------------------

Hello Donnie,

So if I understand correctly your problem is that it overwrites (but still 
keeps a nested structure). If you want to really "merge" nested properties I 
think a new type of property merge executor should be implemented, because this 
is a specific operation that might not be desired as a "default" strategy.

Regards,
  Serge...

> When merging profiles unomi does not look for profile properties that are 
> nested.
> {code:javascript}
>    "properties": {
>         "nbOfVisits": 1,
>         "lastVisit": "2017-10-25T20:04:49Z",
>         "group": {
>             "user_ids": {
>                 "site_1": "123_user_id"
>             }
>         },
>         "firstVisit": "2017-10-25T20:04:49Z",
>     }
> {code}
> When this profile gets merged, unomi looks for the properties on line 458 in 
> ProfileServiceImpl.
> {code:java}
> allProfileProperties.addAll(profile.getProperties().keySet());
> {code}
> The keySet() will only include "group", not the values nested inside.  So we 
> cannot define a mergeRule for the values inside.
> How can we merge two profiles with different user_id values?
> Current work around is to use 
> {code:javascript} group_user-id_site-1 : "123_user_id" {code}
> instead of the nested property.
> Any thoughts or is this a new use case?
> Thanks,
