Output Schema

An output schema defines the structure of the data generated as output by a process or system. The primary purpose of output schemas is to ensure data consistency and ease of understanding.

In the Backflipt platform, you have the option to define the output schema using three different types: Fixed, Run, and Schema Service.

To Add Output Schema:

  1. Select the Add Output Schema option.
  2. In the Output Schema dialog, select Type.

  • Fixed: The Fixed type of output schema uses a fixed set of fields and data types.
  • Run: The Run type of output schema generates the fields and data types based on the data that is processed.
  • Schema Service: The Schema Service type of output schema uses a schema service to generate the fields and data types.
  1. If you selected Fixed type, add the sample JSON data in the Sample JSON Data field.

  1. If you selected Schema Service type, select the schema service in the Select Service dropdown.

  2. Select OK to save the output schema.
