Authored explanation
Path-integral quantization uses the classical action in a formal or regulated sum over histories, typically with phase eiS/ℏ; making the construction rigorous depends on the theory and signature.
How to interpret this relation type
A classical system or field theory is used to construct a quantum theory through a stated quantization procedure. Quantization need not be unique and is not guaranteed to preserve every classical structure.

Path-integral methods construct quantum amplitudes from the classical action after gauge fixing and regularization as needed.
