'jsonPath'

'jsonPath'` is a literal. Pinot uses single quotes to distinguish them from identifiers. You can use the Jayway JsonPath Evaluator Tool to test JSON expressions before you import any data.

    "name": "Pete",
    "age": 24,
    "subjects": [
      {
        "name": "maths",
        "homework_grades": [80, 85, 90, 95, 100],
        "grade": "A",
        "score": 90
      },

        "grade": "B",
        "score": 70
      }
    ]
  }
}

Expression

Value

JSONPATHLONG(data, '$.age')

24

This function can be used in the table config to extract the age property into the age column, as described below:

{
   "tableConfig":{
      "ingestionConfig":{
         "transformConfigs":[
            {
               "columnName":"age",
               "transformFunction":"JSONPATHLONG(data, '$.age')"
            }
         ]
      }
   }
}
