GitHub user theelderbeever closed a discussion: How to access Map array by field

I have a MapArray column that I am reading from a parquet table. I am trying to 
access particular key/value pairs in that map. 

I was attempting this SQL expression `SELECT tags['account'] FROM metrics` 
however, I get the error

> Error: Generic("Error during planning: The expression to get an indexed field 
> is only valid for `List` or `Struct` types, got Map(Field { name: 
> \"entries\", data_type: Struct([Field { name: \"keys\", data_type: Utf8, 
> nullable: false, dict_id: 0, dict_is_ordered: false, metadata: {} }, Field { 
> name: \"values\", data_type: Utf8, nullable: true, dict_id: 0, 
> dict_is_ordered: false, metadata: {} }]), nullable: false, dict_id: 0, 
> dict_is_ordered: false, metadata: {} }, false)")

The parquet file was generated using a MapBuilder from arrow so the type should 
be correct. How can I query the keys in a Map array?
