Usage Details
``` {text}(inputTable: TableReference, field: ColumnReference, nameOfNewField: String)
**Input**:
`inputTable`: The table containing the data to run this operator on.
`field`: Select the field with an array that you want to split into rows.
`name of new field`: Enter the name of the field.
## Example
In the input table, enter the fields that you want to split.
Define the array table as follows:
```scala
array1 as `select array(1, 2) as arrayCol from _Start_Node`
array2 as `select array(3, 4) as arrayCol from _Start_Node`
To combine the columns use the 'unionAll(array1, array2)'The input table displays the following array column, let's say input table = InputData
arrayCol |
|---|
WrappedArray(1, 2) |
WrappedArray(3, 4) |
When you apply the splitArray operator, the output is shown as follows:
splitArray(InputData, $.arrayCol, "splitted")The output table displays the following split array column.
arrayCol | splitted |
|---|---|
WrappedArray(1, 2) | 1 |
WrappedArray(1, 2) | 2 |
WrappedArray(3, 4) | 3 |
WrappedArray(3, 4) | 4 |
