-------------------------------
Summary: Cannot define optiona field tags in Avro schema
Key: AVRO-2134
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-2134
Project: Avro
Issue Type: Bug
Components: java
Affects Versions: 1.7.7
Reporter: raghugogi
We are designing an Avro schema for kafka event payload and trying to use that
for validating event message with Avro schema by posting Kafka rest proxy.
The avro schema has some fields which are defined with union encoding \"},
{\"name\": \"address\", \"type\": ,[\"null\",\"string\"], default:null}
Our clients want to send event message data to kafka broker for some complex
data types optionally even though it is specified in Avro schema or few of the
primitive data types as optional in complex data type.
Is there any avro version which can skip the validation for not sent field data
in event message?
The error message we see as follows:
"error_code": 42203,
"message": "Conversion of JSON to Avro failed: Failed to convert JSON to Avro:
Expected start-union. Got END_OBJECT"
