Andrew Lim created NIFI-4579:
--------------------------------
Summary: When Strict Type Checking property is set to "false",
ValidateRecord does not coerce fields into the correct type.
Key: NIFI-4579
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4579
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Documentation & Website, Extensions
Affects Versions: 1.4.0
Reporter: Andrew Lim
The description of the Strict Type Checking property for the ValidateRecord
processor states:
If false, the Record will be considered valid and the field will be coerced
into the correct type (if possible, according to the type coercion supported by
the Record Writer).
In my testing I've confirmed that in this scenario, the records are considered
valid. But, none of the record fields are coerced into the correct type.
We should either correct the documentation or implement the promised coercion
functionality.
