# ImportedType

This type represents a type from a specific file. It is the result of joining a [Path](/stable/api-documentation/types-and-objects/path.md) string with a type name, and is represented as such: `Path:TypeName`, where `Path` is the path to a file and `TypeName` is the name of a model in that specific file. When defining paths, you should follow the recommendations from [this](/stable/concepts/conventions-and-standards.md#paths-and-denoting-paths) page. We recommend using [importType](/stable/modules/schema-creator/api-documentation.md#importtype-file-string-typename-string) to get an [ImportedType](/stable/api-documentation/types-and-objects/imported-type.md).
