> The input XML is:
> !image-2019-04-24-13-41-26-860.png!
>
> The output JSON is almost correct, yet it is missing two critical fields
> (they both show up as "null". The null fields are
> {color:#ff0000}position{color} and {color:#ff0000}ncsmTrackData{color}. It is
> also missing all of the attributes on fltdMessage.

> The configuration of my ConvertRecord is:

> My XMLReader configuration is:

> Questions:
> # Why are these two fields null?
> # Why are all the fltdMessage attributes being ignored?
> It would seem that this is a bug, or at least a major shortcoming, in the
> schema inference capability. If there were a way for me to view the inferred
> schema, then I could use that as a starting point. However its not clear from
> the documentation how to view that schema.
