Jark Wu updated FLINK-21064:
----------------------------
Component/s: Table SQL / Ecosystem
> Format docs incorrectly contain "format" property
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-21064
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-21064
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation, Table SQL / Ecosystem
> Affects Versions: 1.12.0, 1.12.1
> Reporter: Ingo Bürk
> Priority: Minor
>
> In the Flink docs, all formats document the "format" property as required.
> However, this is actually a property of the connector, not the format.
> Prior to 1.12 this was only an issue for custom connectors as all of Flink's
> connectors by convention had a "format" property. With 1.12+, the Kafka
> connector made the "format" property non-required as users can instead use
> "value.format". Although being synonyms, this now logically breaks the
> documentation of the Formats stating that "format" is a required property.
