unwrap.opencdc

Unwraps an OpenCDC record saved in one of the record's fields.

Description​

The unwrap.opencdc processor is useful in situations where a record goes through intermediate systems before being written to a final destination. In these cases, the original OpenCDC record is part of the payload read from the intermediate system and needs to be unwrapped before being written.

Note: if the wrapped OpenCDC record is not in a structured data field, then it's assumed that it's stored in JSON format.
