--------------------------------
Summary: UpdateRecord fails to update Record Schema when adding
new "inner" field
Key: NIFI-6691
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-6691
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Extensions
Reporter: Mark Payne
Assignee: Mark Payne
If UpdateRecord is used to add a field to a Record, the output Record should
have a schema that consists of the input record's schema modified to account
for any newly added fields/types. For example, if the input Record contains 3
fields, "street", "city", and "state", and a new field, "fullAddress" is to be
added by UpdateRecord, the output Record should contain all 4 fields.
This works already. But if the field to add is not at "root" level (for
example, if the root is a Record that has an array of type Address that
possesses all of these fields) then the resulting Record has a Schema with an
"Address" field that still contains only street, city, and state – not the new
"fullAddress" field.
