Returns the ID of the entity type the field is attached to.

This method should not be confused with EntityInterface::getEntityTypeId() (configurable fields are config entities, and thus implement both interfaces):

• FieldDefinitionInterface::getTargetEntityTypeId() answers "as a field, which entity type are you attached to?".
• EntityInterface::getEntityTypeId() answers "as a (config) entity, what is your own entity type?".

Return value

string The entity type ID.

Overrides FieldDefinitionInterface::getTargetEntityTypeId
