Optional
connectionA description of sources from which the document is derived.
A JSON Schema. The schema must contain a default
field that has an example of a document that conforms to the schema, otherwise the schema Mappings UI won’t be able to use the schema. For example:
\{
"$schema": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema",
"type": "object",
"properties": \{
"quantity": \{
"type": "number"
\},
"unit_price": \{
"type": "number"
\},
"currency": \{
"type": "string",
"minLength": 3,
"maxLength": 3
\}
\},
"default": \{
"quantity": 1,
"unit_price": 1.00,
"currency": "USD"
\}
\}
The schema must be provided as a string, so in practice, it doesn't look like the above; it looks like this:
"\{"$schema":"https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema","type":"object","properties":\{"quantity":\{"type":"number"\},"unit_price":\{"type":"number"\},"currency":\{"type":"string","minLength":3,"maxLength":3\}\},"default":\{"quantity":1,"unit_price":1,"currency":"USD"\}\}"
Optional
nameThe name of the schema.
Specifies the format of the schema. Only JSON Schema is supported, so this must be set to jsonschema@2020-12
.
A schema describing the shape of the input JSON. The schema is not used to map documents, but it can provide valuable assistance while writing mapping expressions in the Mappings UI. The schema can include a default document with values that, also, can be helpful while writing mapping expressions. If you don't plan on editing the mapping definition using the UI, there's no benefit to including a source schema.
