Hi Wei, It works ! Thanks a lot for your support. I hadn't tried this last combination for option 1, and I had wrong syntax for option 2.
So to summarize.. Methods working: - Current: DataTypeHint in UDF definition + SQL for UDF registering - Outdated: override getResultType in UDF definition + t_env.register_java_function for UDF registering Type conversions working: - scala.collection.immutable.Map[String,String] => org.apache.flink.types.Row => ROW<STRING,STRING> - scala.collection.immutable.Map[String,String] => java.util.Map[String,String] => MAP<STRING,STRING> Any hint for Map[String,Any] ?
