Hi. I'm unclear about what the JSON type can be used for.

For example, I have a CSV file with several columns, one of them a JSON
stringified array. I define the column type as JSON in the "Text file input
transform" successfully. However, when I try parsing that field in a "JSON
input" transform, I get an error:

ArrayNode cannot be cast to class java.lang.String

On the other hand if I define the field as a String during text input, then
everything works fine. What's the point of the JSON data type?

Thanks for any tips.

Geoff
