# Directory Paths

The following is an example of a directory path in the Altrata Data Feed. The following explains this structure in detail, covering what each part of the path represents and its possible values.

:::BlockQuote
/ProfessionalCore/all-all/v1/full/2026-01-01/ 
:::

# Data Package

The first part of the path denotes the Data Package and Version that this folder contains. In this example, the folder will contain **version 1** of the **ProfessionalCore** Data Package.

:::BlockQuote

If your subscription contains other data packages, then you will see an additional root -level folder for each one. For more information on Data Packages, see [Data Packages & Subscription Entitlements](docId:5BwVMfJqTDun-NrOzllH_)
