Avro Input Separate Schema dialog

If you select JSON datum, binary datum, or Avro file (use alternate schema), the Avro Input step assumes the schema is in a separate location from your data. The location of the data and its schema can be either a file or a PDI field.

Option Description
Source Specify the location of the source data:
  • From file: Specify the Folder/File name of the file or a folder containing multiple files, which is the fully qualified URL of the source file name. You can also click Browse to navigate to the source file or folder through your VFS connection. See Connecting to Virtual File Systems for more information. A single Avro file is specified to read as input.
  • From field: Select the Field name containing the location of your source. The list of available fields comes from any PDI step connected to the Avro Input step.

  • From file: Specify the File name of the file, which is the fully qualified URL of the schema file name. You can also click Browse to navigate to the schema file on your file system through your VFS connection.
