Hi Chirag,
Please note that json encoded Avro is NOT the same as plain json. It's a
special json dialect that is generally not compatible with regular json
data.
Sad news: there exists no json parser that yields Avro records. Json simply
lacks the context information that Avro union parsing needs.
Kind regard,
Oscar
