Example

In this example, we want to format a JSON string to JQ JSON format and send it to a my.app data table.

...

First, we will use a Tick unit to send the fields when clicked.

In the Fields tab of the properties, we need to add values in JSON format so that it can be processed as a JQ JSON.

Enter the Type as string and in the Value field, the following JSON data:

Code Block
{
    "timestamp": 1234567890,
    "report": "Age Report",
    "results": [
        { "name": "John", "age": 43, "city": "TownA" },
        { "name": "Joe",  "age": 10, "city": "TownB" }
    ]
}

...

Then, we will link it to a JQ unit in order to format the string into JQ JSON format using an expression.

We use the following JQ valid expression in the Expression field:

Code Block
.results[] | select(.name | contains("Jo"))

and fill in the rest of the fields:

...

Finally, we will link its out output port to a Devo sink unit to send the formatted events to a my.app table.
