Research direction

Open the Environment Configs page at the linked section and locate the function-patch-and-transform example using the ToCompositeFieldPath patch. Update the example so it patches the composite status object rather than metadata, and consider the issue done when the published example reflects the supported behavior.

What's Wrong?

The example using function-patch-and-transform has ToCompositeFieldPathpatch which modifies the composite metadata. This is valid in Legacy P&T but is not supported infunction-patch-and-transform. The example should be patching to the composite status` object instead.
