Kafka Connect, on the other hand, only supports a binary HEX string > encoding (see example below). We should support deserialization and > serialization for any of the following types: > {code:java} > { > "asHex": "D3J5", > "asString": "10.12345" > "asNumber": 10.2345 > }{code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
