Andrew Lim created NIFI-4579: -------------------------------- Summary: When Strict Type Checking property is set to "false", ValidateRecord does not coerce fields into the correct type. Key: NIFI-4579 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4579 Project: Apache NiFi Issue Type: Bug Components: Documentation & Website, Extensions Affects Versions: 1.4.0 Reporter: Andrew Lim
The description of the Strict Type Checking property for the ValidateRecord processor states: If false, the Record will be considered valid and the field will be coerced into the correct type (if possible, according to the type coercion supported by the Record Writer). In my testing I've confirmed that in this scenario, the records are considered valid. But, none of the record fields are coerced into the correct type. We should either correct the documentation or implement the promised coercion functionality. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
