Andrew Gao developed and maintained schema definitions for the microsoft/json-schemas repository, focusing on PBIP version 2 compatibility and metadata enhancements. He introduced a mandatory 'schema' property and improved self-description and referencing by adding 'schema' and 'id' fields to all JSON schema files, leveraging skills in data modeling and JSON Schema. Andrew updated the PBIP Report Definition to support dataset connection version 2.0, ensuring backward compatibility and stable integration with evolving data sources. He also managed version control by reverting unintended text changes, restoring project stability. His work demonstrated careful schema evolution and robust change management within a complex codebase.
