AvPath is similar to XPath for selecting, updating, inserting, and deleting Avro data. In Talend Cloud Pipeline Designer, this expression language can be used in all Streams processors to select specific nested data in hierarchical fields.
Additionally, it allows you to select records inside less organized data using the schema on read approach.
An avpath expression consists of two expressions:
-
Location path (mandatory)
-
Predicates (optional)
For more information on avpath, refer to the GitHub documentation.
