Thank you! It works! I was wrong that the `JsonSchemaConverter` deserializes the record into a JsonNode object, I found out its actually a [Kafka Connect Struct Object](https://kafka.apache.org/11/javadoc/org/apache/kafka/connect/data/Struct.html). Anyways, I installed a [transform library](https://github.com/jcustenborder/kafka-connect-transform-common/tree/master/src) and used the [ToJSON SMT](https://github.com/jcustenborder/kafka-connect-transform-common#tojson) to form a JSON string from the Struct before outputting to websocket. My CURL request looks like this now: ``` curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ --data '{ "name": "camel-sink3", "config": { "topics": "xxx", "value.converter": "io.confluent.connect.json.JsonSchemaConverter", "value.converter.schema.registry.url": "http:/xxx-cp-schema-registry:8081", "key.converter": "org.apache.kafka.connect.storage.StringConverter", "connector.class": "org.apache.camel.kafkaconnector.websocket.CamelWebsocketSinkConnector", "camel.sink.path.host": "0.0.0.0", "camel.sink.path.port":"8084", "camel.component.websocket.host":"0.0.0.0", "camel.component.websocket.port": "8084", "camel.sink.path.resourceUri": "kstreams-windows-average", "camel.component.websocket.minThreads": "3", "camel.sink.endpoint.sendToAll": "true", "transforms": "toJson", "transforms.toJson.type": "com.github.jcustenborder.kafka.connect.transform.common.ToJSON$Value", "transforms.toJson.schemas.enable": "false" } }' http://xxx:8083/connectors ``` And now the output is a proper JSON: `{"unit":"C","utc":1588264680439,"name":"temperature","value":422.0}` Thanks again for the help! ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
