Ismaël Mejía updated BEAM-11571:
--------------------------------
Description:
Beam's Convert transform allows to 'automatically' convert from a Schema based
PCollection into a target one.
The current implementation fails if the target PCollection is backed by
GenericRecord. Supporting this type of conversion is important because many IOs
e.g. AvroIO, ParquetIO have write/sink transforms that depend on the input
PCollection in GenericRecord form.

Beam's Convert transform allows to convert a Schema based PCollection into a
target type.
The current implementation fails if the target object is a GenericRecord,
however supporting this type of conversion is important because many IOs e.g.
AvroIO, ParquetIO have write/sink transforms that depend on the conversion
being in GenericRecord form.
