Confluent Schemas with Schema References

[Craig Connell]

Hi group,

Do the Record Readers and Writers work with a schema in Confluent when that
schema references another schema?  or will NiFi not work with these types
of schema references?

For instance, what if you had a reference like this, where
com.company.events.Payload was another schema in confluent.

{
  "fields": [
    {
      "name": "event_type",
      "type": "string"
    },
    {
      "default": null,
      "name": "date",
      "type": [
        "null",
        "long"
      ]
    },
    {
      "name": "domain",
      "type": "string"
    },
    {
      "name": "payload",
      "type": {
        "default": [],
        "items": "com.company.events.Payload",
        "type": "array"
      }
    },
  ],
  "name": "MyEvent",
  "namespace": "com.company.events",
  "type": "record"
}

Thanks,

Craig
