Hi Leonard and Martijn, thanks for looking into this.

I ran into the issue on Flink 1.14.4 (with the matching
flink-sql-connector-kafka based on Scala 2.11), but reproduced the problem
today in 1.15.0 (again with the matching flink-sql-connector-kafka). I haven't
used older versions than 1.14.4.

These following debezium-json messages illustrate the problem; note that
they're published without schema and that they're all produced to Kafka with
this message key:

    {"id":1}

These are the message values; first for an INSERT:

    {"before":null,"after":{"id":1,"done":false,"name":"Initial
value"},"source":{"version":"1.9.2.Final","connector":"sqlserver","name":"mssql","ts_ms":1652104409527,"snapshot":"false","db":"todo","sequence":null,"schema":"dbo","table":"todo_list","change_lsn":"00000025:00000528:001c","commit_lsn":"00000025:00000528:001d","event_serial_no":1},"op":"c","ts_ms":1652104413976,"transaction":null}

Then an UPDATE on the text field:

    {"before":{"id":1,"done":false,"name":"Initial
value"},"after":{"id":1,"done":false,"name":"Updated
#1"},"source":{"version":"1.9.2.Final","connector":"sqlserver","name":"mssql","ts_ms":1652104502837,"snapshot":"false","db":"todo","sequence":null,"schema":"dbo","table":"todo_list","change_lsn":"00000025:000005d8:0002","commit_lsn":"00000025:000005d8:0003","event_serial_no":2},"op":"u","ts_ms":1652104503260,"transaction":null}

Then an UPDATE on a boolean field -- this causes a duplicated row for id=1:

    
{"before":{"id":1,"done":false,"name":""},"after":{"id":1,"done":true,"name":"Updated
#1"},"source":{"version":"1.9.2.Final","connector":"sqlserver","name":"mssql","ts_ms":1652104507080,"snapshot":"false","db":"todo","sequence":null,"schema":"dbo","table":"todo_list","change_lsn":"00000025:000005f0:0002","commit_lsn":"00000025:000005f0:0003","event_serial_no":2},"op":"u","ts_ms":1652104508248,"transaction":null}

Another UPDATE on the text field -- this causes an update the of text
field in the second instance of the id=1 row:

    {"before":{"id":1,"done":true,"name":"Updated
#1"},"after":{"id":1,"done":true,"name":"Updated
#2"},"source":{"version":"1.9.2.Final","connector":"sqlserver","name":"mssql","ts_ms":1652104511600,"snapshot":"false","db":"todo","sequence":null,"schema":"dbo","table":"todo_list","change_lsn":"00000025:00000608:0002","commit_lsn":"00000025:00000608:0003","event_serial_no":2},"op":"u","ts_ms":1652104513257,"transaction":null}

And finally a DELETE -- this causes the deletion of the second row
with id=1, but not the first:

    {"before":{"id":1,"done":true,"name":"Updated
#2"},"after":null,"source":{"version":"1.9.2.Final","connector":"sqlserver","name":"mssql","ts_ms":1652104514893,"snapshot":"false","db":"todo","sequence":null,"schema":"dbo","table":"todo_list","change_lsn":"00000025:00000620:0002","commit_lsn":"00000025:00000620:0005","event_serial_no":1},"op":"d","ts_ms":1652104518749,"transaction":null}

(Debezium then produces a tombstone record with the same key
`{"id":1}` and value `null`.)

For reference, this is the CREATE TABLE statement for the source connector::

    CREATE TABLE todo_list (
        id BIGINT,
        done BOOLEAN,
        name STRING
    )
    WITH (
        'connector'='kafka',
        'topic'='mssql.dbo.todo_list',
        'properties.bootstrap.servers'='10.88.10.10:9092',
        'properties.group.id'='flinksql-todo-list',
        'scan.startup.mode'='earliest-offset',
        'key.format'='json',
        'key.fields'='id',
        'value.format'='debezium-json',
        'value.debezium-json.schema-include'='false',
        'value.fields-include'='EXCEPT_KEY'
    );

Please let me know if there's anything else I can do to clear this up.

Kind regards,
Joost Molenaar
