The current converters want you to send Avro records with a "schema id" prepended to the serialized Avro. You also need the schema registry running. I'm guessing this is what Olivier is talking about.
I think it is possible to write your own converter that doesn't need this but I haven't tried. -Dave -----Original Message----- From: Michael Sklyar [mailto:mikesk...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, September 26, 2016 6:11 AM To: users@kafka.apache.org Subject: Re: Kafka connect 2.0.1 - ByteArrayConverter ?
