Hi Asmath, Here is an example of using structured streaming to read from Kafka:
https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/examples/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/examples/sql/streaming/StructuredKafkaWordCount.scala In terms of parsing the JSON, there is a from_json function that you can use. The following might help: https://databricks.com/blog/2017/02/23/working-complex-data-formats-structured-streaming-apache-spark-2-1.html I hope this helps.
